As the start of the holiday season approaches, we’ve got some of the top tips to help make those long-distance family trips less stressful.
Spring has finally sprung and that means the warmer weather is upon us.
That means more of us will be thinking about hitting the road for a UK adventure or even further afield. For families this can be a big challenge with lots to prepare for children, and more to factor in when on the road.
If you have a family and are planning on going away in the car, there are a few essential things you need to know to make sure you arrive at your destination in a calm and cool manner.
We’ve compiled a list of the best top tips to help make those long-distance family trips less stressful.
Do some pre-drive checks to your vehicle
If you’re planning on taking your family on a long-distance trip this summer, make sure that your vehicle is safe.
You can do some simple checks such as checking the condition of the tyres. Look for cracks, perishing and the tread depth – the minimum legal tread requirement in the UK is 1.6mm.
Check the windscreen for any cracks or chips, make sure your windscreen wipers clear the glass effectively and that all the fluid levels such as screenwash and brake fluid are topped up.
Doing these simple checks could save you and your family’s life from any severe accidents.
