Holiday Travel Safety Tips
With the Holiday Season quickly upon us, many of you will hit the road to see family and friends. Here are some tips to make sure your trip is a safe and joyous one:
When you travel, know where you are going and how to get there and back. Check for construction detours; for longer trips, get a weather forecast.
If traveling out-of-state, most state law enforcement agencies provide road-and-highway information; check to see what conditions they report before leaving. Inform a Family member where you will be and when to expect you back; give them your route if they don't know it.
Travel and conduct your business during daylight hours if possible. Lock doors and windows when getting into your car and keep them locked while driving.
If you have access to a cellular telephone, carry or take it.
If possible, know the emergency cell codes for the area you're in.

When driving, keep doors locked and windows rolled up. Maintain at least half a tank of fuel, and keep vehicle in good repair.
If planning a "road trip" over the holidays, have your vehicle serviced and checked out sufficiently far ahead to allow for repairs if needed. Don't forget to have the mechanic check your spare tire and all fluid levels along with the other preventive maintenance procedures.
Here is wishing you and yours safe travels!
