Any time you get behind the wheel of a vehicle; you take on a great responsibility. Not only are you taking the safety of any passengers in your own hands, but you also place it into other drivers' hands. In order to get to your destination with relatively few issues, you need to do a couple of things.

Don't drive distracted. Distracted driving is one of the worst things you can do behind the wheel. Try not to play with the radio and don't get into deep conversations with any passengers, as those can also be a distraction.

Secure any cargo you might have so that it doesn't sway and change the balance of the vehicle. Not only is it distracting, but it can make the car handle differently depending on the cargo.

Get the vehicle set up the way you want it. Adjust the seat and mirrors before you even turn the key, and you will have already made it a safer ride.

Don’t forget about vehicle maintenance. If you need to get up to date on your vehicle’s services, contact us at Paul Bailey’s Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in North Kingstown, RI.
