Fall Driving Tips

<跨度样式="显示：初始；"> 1. Pay attention to the leaves

<跨度样式="显示：初始；"> As the weather changes and leaves accumulate, they can become a hazard on the road. This fall, you should try to be cautious or avoid large piles of fallen leaves on the road, which can be as slippery as ice and can cover debris or potholes.

2. Check the tires

When temperatures change, make sure your tires are properly inflated and have adequate life. You may want to consider switching to winter tires in snowy or icy conditions.

3. Check your lights

As daylight hours decrease, make sure your headlights are working properly. Use them in low visibility conditions and remember to turn them on at dusk or any time the weather suits your climate.

4. Pay attention to wildlife

Deer are particularly active in the fall. Stay vigilant, especially in areas with deer crossing signs, and at dawn and dusk as this is when they are most active.

5. Keep your windshield clean

Check your windshield wipers and remove the fallen leaves that accumulate this time of year. A clear view is crucial as rain and debris can obscure your view.
