Driving in summer is often more difficult due to increased temperatures and busier roads. Follow these top tips on safer driving.

1. Top Tips for driving in summer
Summer brings hot
temperatures, but can also
bring busy and congested
roads, with people trying to get
away for the weekend. Follow
these tips to ensure your
summer driving is enjoyable
and safe.
1. If you’re going away for a few days then you’re bound to be carrying some
extra weight on your car. Ensure your tyres are inflated to the correct
pressure to cater for the extra weight.
2. Overheating is a common problem with cars in the hotter months. Ensure
all the fluid levels in your car are correct. This will prevent over heating
and something going wrong.
3. Open windows can cause extra drag on your car; this in turn will cost you
more in petrol. Try using the air vents instead, or air conditioning.
4. Ensure you don’t get too fatigued on your journey, and take regular
breaks.
