Tips For Summer Driving
|
 |
|
Preparation
for the season is always a smart plan for you and your vehicle. Summer
is one of the most popular times for road trips, and July, August, and
September are the most common months for automobile accidents to
occur.
Keep
in mind
that summer weather conditions can be the same rigors for
your car as in winter, especially
if your vehicle is not prepared properly.
Passengers and drivers are no
happier
being stranded on the road in a summer heat wave than they are in a
winter storm. Make sure your trip route is planned well in advance so
that you would know what to expect and where to go. That type of
planning will also help you to save money on gas.
WHAT
EVERY DRIVER SHOULD KNOW:
 Choose
the correct size child
seat.
Check
the condition of all tires (including the spare).
Check
the oil (it should be changed every 5,000 kilometers).
Check
the engine cooling system (including the air conditioning).
Make
sure wiper blades are still in good condition.
Check
the transmission fluid (it should be serviced every 50,000 km).
Make
sure the power steering fluid is at the proper level.
Make
sure that all the lights on the vehicle work.
If
engine is running poorly it likely need tune-up.
Have
the breaking system inspected and adjusted.
If
you are going on a longer trip it is always good idea to have road side
kit, some common hand tools, first aid kit, emergency phone numbers,
and emergency light with
spare
batteries.
Make
sure you have road maps, anti-freeze, washer fluid and extra supply of
oil with you.
If
you are pulling a trailer, make sure everything is in good condition.
Don't
forget to check the wheel bearings. |
