Preparation and Planning
Before
you head out onto the highway you should try to travel
when traffic is light and weather is good. Always
check or have your vehicle checked for roadworthiness.
These include but are not limited to checking:
- Fluid Levels
- Tire Pressure and Wear (including
spare tire)
- Suspicious Noises
- Visibility (windows, mirrors,
wipers)
- Brakes (feel, pull to side,
vibration, weakness)
- If you are headed to an
unfamiliar destination, check the route by using
a map, internet or a GPS device and plan your route
before you go.
- Lights (headlights, taillights,
brake lights, turn signals and driving lights).
