Helpful Tips When Traveling During the Winter

By 12/20/2015March 15th, 2016Uncategorized

During the Holidays season, many families are traveling throughout the country to visit loved ones to spend time with.  No matter if you are traveling by car, train or automobile, there are many things to do to make sure you and your family have a safe and enjoyable trip.

  • Make sure your vehicle is properly maintained – It’s a good idea to have your car and tires inspected before you take a long drive. In case of an accident or breakdown, make sure you have roadside assistance contact information on hand.
  • Map your traveling route in advance so that you are fully prepared for busy roads during this time of year. If possible, consider leaving early or later for your trip to avoid heavy holiday traffic.  It is a good idea to keep a few pocket maps in your vehicle at all times.
  • In the case of an emergency, keep a cell phone charger with you at all times. Make sure your cell phone is fully charged when you are traveling and to never text and drive.  We want everyone on the road to have a safe trip.

Traveling during the winter season can be less stressful if you take the necessary tips before and during your travels.  At Z-CARD we design custom pocket maps and brochures.  Looking to design a custom one?  Contact us at ZcardNA.com today!
