Summer Driving Tips:
1) Improve you gas mileage:
In order to get the best gas mileage
for your car - empty it! Yup it's amazing how many people with lug around a
trunk full of golf gear, luggage, left over winter gear, kid's toys and bikes
when they don't even need them. By clearing your vehicle of all unnecessary
gear you can improve fuel economy by 1-2%.
Use the proper grade of gasoline.
Buying a premium grade of gas when your car doesn't call for it is nothing more
than a waste of money. Not sure what grade to buy? Check online or with a
trusted mechanic and they'll steer you in the right direction the bench seat console manufacture.
Keep your speed within reason. While
we at Hectic Holidays don't condone speeding and we know how hard it is not to
go blasting down the open highway; you lose a lot of your fuel economy as you
push your car well over the speed limit. By keeping your cruising speed within
reasonable limits you can save 2-5% in fuel. And speaking of cruising, use
cruise control when possible as it adjusts to the road conditions better than
most drivers can and helps maintain an even speed and can lower fuel
consumption. ower generator - This is to ensure that the lack or no supply of

Finally check those tires! Properly
inflated tires can save a driver between 1-3% in fuel usage. It's one of the
easiest and most overlooked fuel savings tip.
2) Check your route!
As we say up north, there are only two
seasons - winter and construction season. Try finding alternate routes and or
adjusting your travel times if there's road work being done. This alone can
save you massive amount of gas, money and time. Plus staring at the back of the
same car going 2 mph for over an hour is not fun with a car or SUV full of
antsy kids!
3) Watch out for teens drivers
Realize more teens are on the road
during the summer with school being out. Traditionally this is one of the most
dangerous groups on the road; and now with smart phones, the allure of constant
communication with their friends is greater than ever. And don't even think
about texting and driving ourself. Studies have continually shown a driver
that's texting is as impaired as a drunk driver when it comes to reaction
times.
4) Get an early start.
If you can leave early before the
morning rush hour starts.
5) Don't even think about drinking!
Finally the most important summer
driving tip is as always - don't ever drink and drive. I know the message has
been beaten into us and rightly so; but during the summer holiday season filled
with picnics, family events, and major weekend driving holidays it's a safety
tip that too many people still forgot.
Good luck, save summer driving and
enjoy the weather!
