The weather was certainly very ‘up and down’ in over the last couple of months. We've had rain, wind, and a fair number of sunny days. Forecasters are predicting hotter conditions to return next week.
If it does, make sure you’re ready for it because driving in warmer weather brings its own risks, like dehydration, increased roadworks, vehicle malfunctions, and more vehicles on the road as people head off on holiday. 🏖
Before setting off, whether car, van or HGV, don’t forget to:
🔧Check your vehicle (tyres, brake pads & fluid)
🫗Stay hydrated
💤Keep vehicle well ventilated to avoid drowsiness
🌞Prepare for glare
🚦Take extra care around roadworks
🥪Make the most of your breaks
