Summer Travel Safety Tips
During the summer months, many families embark on vacation getaways. Summer travel and readying the car for trips can be the most stressful part of the vacation. Travelers offers some packing and driving tips for families hitting the road for vacation this summer.
74%
of Americans taking a summer vacation
plan to drive
Don't overload
When packing, the car can get filled quickly. Spread out the load so the weight is evenly distributed
Be a prepared parent
Pack snacks, extra clothes and entertaining items that will keep your little ones in the back seat happy.
Keep a clear view
When packing your vehicle, make sure you maintain a proper line of sight with your mirrors and windows.
Ready the roof rack
Know your rack's weight limit by checking the user's manual. Recognize the height of your vehicle after packing to prevent damage or accidents.
In 2011alone, over
3,000 people were killed
in distracted driving crashes.‡
Know the route
Familiarize yourself with the route before leaving for your trip. Relying solely upon GPS can lead to dangerous last minute turns and lane changes.
Secure your pets
Unsecured pets can become a distraction. Secure your pets appropriately and never let them run about the vehicle.
Cruise carefully
Cruise control can be a helpful tool, but be careful when using it on long trips, as it can make it easier for drivers to lose focus on the road.
Take a break
When travelling long distances, it's important to take frequent breaks to help maintain focus and avoid fatigue.
