Plan Out Your Road Trip● If you want to make your ride that much more

enjoyable, efficient, and smooth, you should plan out where you’ll go, what routes you’ll take, where you’ll stop, and more.

● You can even estimate at what time you’ll get to each point to make your trip more organized.

Sleep Well

You need to be well-rested if you’ll be driving long hours during your road trip. Going to bed early and having a good night’s sleep can help prevent accidents while you’re behind the wheel.

Start Your Road Trip Early

Get up with the sun! The best time to start your road trip is early in the morning: you’re likely to avoid heavy traffic, and you’ll get more use out of the sunlight (which increases your visibility).

Take What You Need

○ Road trips are exciting, but if you want to endure the long hours in the car, you’ll need certain things.

○ Take entertainment (i.e. music), and enough snacks, water, and other necessities for you and your passengers.

Be a Responsible Driver

Most important of all: be a responsible driver. Don’t get distracted, don’t drive under the influence, stay on high alert, comply with the speed limit, and follow traffic rules. Likewise, be sure to rest when needed and to share the wheel with one of your companions if you’re feeling tired.
