Cars do not require a great deal of attention most of the time. However, there are times when it is essential to make a few adjustments or spend some time working in your car ensure safety and legality of your car.
Nearly everyone makes an effort to weatherproof his or her car during winter months, but it is also a good idea to make adjustments to your car during the spring and summer as well, as your vehicle may be exposed to new elements. Doing so can help ensure your safety and help to avoid accidents. Here’s what you can do during the spring and summer to improve the safety of your car:
1) Check your tires. Make sure they are full and that the treads are not too worn, especially if you live in a rainy area where traction must be at a maximum.
2) Keep a can of Fix-A-Flat or another flat tire air can in the car in case of an emergency.
3) Keep a pair of sunglasses in your glove compartment at all times. Glare can be a big hindrance to driving safety, but is a relatively easy thing to avoid.
4) Make sure you have a full emergency set in your car, including jumper cables, flares, a spare tire and a jack. An orange reflective vest is also a good thing to have on-hand for nighttime road emergencies.
