“It’s
the most wonderful time of the year!” Right? Right? Um…hello?
Ok, so maybe once the gifts are wrapped, the food is prepared and Santa
has left an abundance of presents and cookie crumbs, then you can take a breather
and enjoy the holiday cheer. These next
couple weeks will be hectic, we know.
It’s a great time of the year, but the stress that goes into it can be
overwhelming. There’s hope,
however. In today’s blog, we’re
providing some quick tips for navigating your holiday season safely.
1.) If
you’re going on a road trip, please make sure your car is serviced
properly. Come into our dealership
anytime for oil, brake fluid and tire condition checks.
2.) SLEEP
WELL. Get a good night’s sleep before
you venture into the world.
3.) Plan
your route; this will help you in the long run.
Unsafe detours can be dangerous and expensive.
4.) Bring
a paper map. GPS is the wave of the
future, but a paper map can act as backup if you’re GPS malfunctions.
5.) Buy
snacks and drinks before you leave, because stocking up at gas stations can be
costly.
6.) Tell
at least 1 family member where you’re headed.
So, if something happens, you have a reliable person to get the message
out.
7.) DO
NOT announce on social media that you’re leaving for vacation. Secure your home and leave at least one light
on. This will detract burglars from your
home.
8.) Leave
early. If the common rush hour time is
9:30, leave a couple hours early to compensate for time.
Do
you have any tips to add? Feel
free! Have a safe drive and HAPPY
HOLIDAYS!!!
