Safety Tips for Holiday Travellers this Christmas The key word is preparation, applicable to yourself, your passengers and not least, your vehicle. Don¿t simply jump in your car and drive away as you could be heading for disaster. Check all your tyres for sufficient tread and pressure. Make sure your car windows are clean. It's amazing how much road grime collects on your windscreen, making driving at night particularly difficult. | |
Comfort is important, too, both for yourself as the driver and for your passengers. Make sure you get plenty of sleep before starting a long journey. It goes without saying that you shouldn't drink and drive. Remember that a few drinks the night before can remain in your bloodstream for several hours and badly affect your driving ability. |
