How are you spending your Thanksgiving Day? Perhaps you’re heading to Grandma’s cottage, your friend?s lake house, or a city event. It is estimated that more than 40 million Americans will be traveling a minimum of 50 miles to for Thanksgiving celebrations.<\/p>\n

While we look forward to spending time with friends and family on this day, travel can quickly grind our plans to a halt. Before you hit the road this Thanksgiving, review these tips for the ultimate travel safety!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Leave work early.<\/strong> Consider using your vacation time to leave a couple of days early or get back later so that you miss most<\/em><\/li>\n
  2. Take a long way. <\/strong>Take an alternative route that is less likely to be full of other drivers. Enjoy the scenic drive!<\/li>\n
  3. Charge up. <\/strong>If possible, ensure that you have your charging cords for your smartphone and navigation system so that you?ll never be lost!<\/li>\n
  4. Supply snacks.<\/strong> So that you are not making lots of pit stops, pack snacks and water!<\/li>\n
  5. Remember coins.<\/strong> You may approach toll booths, so be prepared.<\/li>\n
  6. Car check-up:<\/strong> Have your local mechanic inspect your car to be sure that the car is in good working order.<\/li>\n
  7. Rest!<\/strong> For those who are driving long distances, ensure that you periodically stop to stretch your legs.<\/li>\n
  8. Avoid distracted driving: <\/strong>Always focus on the road. Never eat, send texts, or make phone calls while driving!<\/li>\n
  9. Keep a safe distance:<\/strong> Leave enough space in between you and the car in front. If there is adverse weather, leave more room as your stopping distance can be doubled.<\/li>\n
