As you embark on your next journey in or out of Columbus, OH, our team at Bob-Boyd Lincoln, Inc. wants your vehicle to be in the best condition possible. Get up close and personal with an inspection of tires, brakes, fluid levels, and lights, and remember to check the tire pressure too! If you are hauling a trailer or cargo atop your car, like suitcases on a roof rack or bike racks in hitches, ensure any items fastened onto your vehicle are securely attached for maximum safety before setting off.
It is always wise to carry an emergency kit containing medical supplies and roadside repair tools. This must include first-aid items, jumper cables, flashlights, flares or reflectors, rags, and any other materials that could be useful in a sticky situation on the road. With this equipment, you can confidently journey into the unknown, knowing your safety is ensured!
Before hitting the road, you must prepare by planning your route and anticipating weather or traffic delays. A map or GPS device can come in handy when attempting to avoid unexpected detours that could delay you on your journey!
