Category: Highway

This article aims to encourage highway drivers to follow a few tips that can help avoid traffic jam and stay safe when on the road especially in holiday travel rush.
Planning in advance and following safe driving advice are essentials to keep in mind when you decide to travel by highways around holidays. Because traffic increases near holiday season.

Before departing (planning in advance)
In order to avoid the possible rush hours and traffic jam, drivers should first settle the preferred routes and time to travel. If you drive during peak commuting time, it's quite possible to be stuck in the queue. Planning your trip and choosing the proper time ahead can reduce time, according to The Federal Highway Administration of America, as much as 37 percent compared to driving during peak hours.

For planning ahead, you can also check the website that shows you the highway lines, road conditions as well as weather information. Local telephone service is also a great idea to obtain holiday highway traffic information.

Besides driving information, car's condition are always vital. Remember to check your tire pressure because proper inflation can save gas and tire wear. And also examine the air in the spare, balance your cars' load, and replace your windshield wipers.

Find out some stops from maps/GPS at restaurants, shops or attractions to make those days on the road a real holiday!

On the road (following safe driving advice)
When you on the road, to get real-time information of traffic jam, construction areas and lane closures on highways, you may take advantage of highway telephone services and radios.

Safety on road always comes first! Always buckle up and make sure your passengers do so before take off. Also consider these tips: avoiding tailgating (stay at least three seconds behind the vehicle you're following), obeying speed limits and slowing down in work zones and bad weather.
