The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is encouraging drivers to take proactive measures in preparation for a safe and enjoyable summer travel season. To enhance your travel experience, it is essential to carefully plan your route, taking into account possible road closures, construction areas, and alternative routes that may be necessary.
In addition to route planning, the NHTSA recommends sharing your travel itinerary with friends or family members. This ensures that someone is always aware of your travel plans, providing an extra layer of safety. Furthermore, it is wise to download offline maps to your device, as this can be invaluable in areas where cellular service may be unreliable.
Another important consideration is to incorporate rest stops into your journey and to estimate travel times accurately. This will help you avoid fatigue and maintain alertness on the road. For additional travel tips and recommendations, you can visit the NHTSA’s official website at NHTSA.gov.
