With the holidays around the corner and people picking up to travel and visit loved ones, there can be an added layer of risk when on the road. Make sure to be vigilant and drive aware of your surroundings.

​5 Tips for Safe Travel
While your focus is on having fun during a road trip, it"s important to remain safe in the process. Following the tips provided here can help you and your loved ones stay safe and healthy as you embark on your vacation.

Maintain Proper Maintenance of Your Vehicle
It’s vital to take your car in for a full maintenance check prior to starting your trip. Have your
vehicle inspected thoroughly as this will allow you to fix any existing problems promptly. It will help prevent serious and sometimes expensive damage to your vehicle by making sure it is in top condition before enduring the wear and tear that long trips create.

Make Frequent Stops to Rest and Stretch
Sitting for long periods of time can be difficult, and this is especially true for children. We
recommend taking frequent breaks to allow everyone to get out of the car, move about and stretch their legs. This can help prevent fatigue, muscle cramps and even blood clots in those who may be prone to developing them. Frequent breaks will also keep children in a good mood and make traveling with young ones much more pleasant.

Invest in a Roadside Assistance Plan
We highly advise the purchase of a roadside assistance plan along with your vehicle insurance. Roadside assistance can provide the much-needed peace of mind that if something goes wrong with your vehicle during your travels, it will be taken care of promptly. The threat of an unforeseen occurrence can take the joy out of your vacation plans, so having this peace of mind can be priceless.

Plan Your Route of Travel While Remaining Flexible
It is best to plan your route of travel well in advance. This will allow you to know where you want to stop for breaks and provides you with an estimated timeline for getting from point A to point B. Of course, it’s important to be flexible because traffic jams, automobile accidents and road work can always be a possibility, in which case alternate routes and detours may be necessary.

Keep a Safety Kit in your Car
We suggest keeping a first-aid kit in your car along with any personal items that might seem appropriate for the current season.

Traveling should be centered around fun with those you love most, not the stress that unforeseen events can create. By following these tips, you can enjoy safe travels.

Most importantly, if you are in an altercation, keep your wits about you.  Make sure to assess your surroundings and document the circumstances of the event.  And if it seems serious, please contact The Valentine Law Firm for legal perspective.
