SPRING DRIVING TIPS

Springtime brings rain and the aftereffects of winter weather - potholes and uneven pavement.  Keep these spring driving tips in mind before you travel:

• Spring showers bring May flowers - and wet driving conditions: Slow down on slick roads and increase your following distance even when mist begins to fall.
• Share the road: Warm weather brings out motorcyclists, bicyclists and pedestrians.
• Try to avoid potholes: Deep potholes can throw your car out of alignment or worse, damaging the wheel and tire.
• Avoid driving through large puddles: Driving through water can impair your brakes, cloud your vision, cause you to hydroplane, plus you never know exactly how deep the water actually is.
• Keep your tires properly inflated: Full tires can reduce the damage caused by potholes and other road hazards.

If you have hit any large pothole please give us a call to have your vehicles steering components checked to make sure all is good.
