Long journeys put extra strain on a vehicle. A few checks the day before can save you hours on the road.
Check before you leave
- Tyre pressure, including the spare, and tread condition
- Engine oil, coolant and brake fluid levels
- Battery terminals, lights and indicators
- Wipers and screen wash
Plan your fuel stops
Know where you will refuel, especially on quieter stretches. If you do run low, fuel and gas can be delivered to your location through a provider in the imergencyApp network.
Drive for the conditions
Rest every couple of hours, avoid driving when drowsy, and share your route with someone who can check in on you.
