When it comes to road trips, people tend to love them or hate them, but either way most of us will take a summer road trip at some point in our life. You always want to ensure that you get to and from your destination safely. Here are a few tips for planning a safe summer road trip:
1. Have More Than One Driver: For trips over 3 hours, have at least two drivers and take turns driving. Break up your driving sessions into 2 – 3 hours time slots so that you always have a fresh driver at the wheel.
2. Know Your Route: Have a GPS system and for back up print directions and a map. You should also have at least one alternate route to your destination prepared as well.
3. Purchase Roadside Assistance: Invest in a quality roadside assistance program that will protect you while traveling out of state. You may be covered through your vehicle warranty, so you may want to check that first.
4. Allot Cushion Travel Time: If you need to arrive at your destination by a specific time leave yourself a 2 – 3 hour cushion if at all possible. You never know when you can run into a car wreck, construction or get a flat tire. Drivers that are in a hurry usually drive less safely.
