Steps to Take

As you enjoy spring's fresh air and budding flowers, remember that driving during this season still comes with challenges. Here are a few tips to help you drive safely this spring:

1. Check Your Vehicle: Winter can be hard on your car. Before doing a lot of spring driving, check your brakes, tires, and windshield wipers to ensure everything's in good working order.
2. Watch Out for Wet Roads: Slow down when it's raining and give yourself extra space between cars to give yourself more time to react if you need to stop quickly.
3. Beware of Potholes: Winter can leave roads in rough shape. Watch out for potholes, especially after rain. Hitting one can damage your car and even cause an accident.
4. Look out for Pedestrians and Bicyclists: Warmer weather means more people are walking and biking. Always check for pedestrians when turning and be especially cautious in residential areas and school zones.
5. Sun Glare: Spring means more daylight and often more sun glare during your commute. Keep your windshield clean and use the sun visor to help you see clearly.
