Summer is in full swing, which means outdoor concerts and music festivals, pool parties and barbeques, days spent at the beach, and that long-awaited summer vacation you’ve been thinking about since last summer. For many, summer also means more time spent traveling in our cars.
Driving in the summer heat can wreak havoc on your vehicle and cause all sorts of unwanted problems. The extreme heat can negatively impact your car’s battery and increase the chances of a tire blowout. Also, with more drivers, motorcyclists, cyclists, and pedestrians sharing the roads, there is a higher risk of car accidents.
From small steps such as planning your route before you drive to bigger ones like inspecting your tires and checking under your hood, there are several things you can do to make your summer road trip safer and more enjoyable.
