The holiday season is a time for traditions and family - and that usually means traveling over the festive period, which can be arduous and hazardous. By taking a few simple precautions, you can keep your family safe and protect your journey, too. Discover how to get around safely with our tips for traveling during the holiday season.
- Plan journeys ahead of time and tell someone where you're going. Map out a couple of different routes in case you encounter heavy traffic or roadworks.
- If you are going to be driving, make sure your vehicle is in good condition. Check the tires, brakes, lights, battery, fluids, and emergency kit.
- The weather can change quickly during this time of year. Check weather conditions before setting off and avoid driving in poor conditions.
- Avoid distractions behind the wheel. Make sure your GPS is set up, the kids are entertained, and your phone is out of reach before starting the vehicle.
- Never drink and drive.
- Don't forget to leave your house secure by locking all the doors and windows and setting the alarm if you have one.
- Make sure all insurance policies are up to date and the policy has the cover you need, especially if you are driving many miles or leaving your home unattended.
