With temperatures reaching the triple digits, it’s extra important to make sure you and your vehicle are prepared for summer road trips across Arizona. Before you hit the road this summer, here are some things you can do to prepare:
Good news if you prepared an emergency kit for traveling in winter weather conditions: A summer weather kit contains a lot of the same items. Just swap mittens and warm clothes for an extra pair of light clothes and sun protection — whether it’s sunglasses, sunscreen, an umbrella, or all three.
It can also be a good idea to keep the blanket from your winter kit for kneeling on the hot ground to change a tire. We also suggest taking a small cooler with ice for your water and snacks if you’re headed on a longer trip.Fill up your gas tankCheck engine belts and fluidsIt’s better to be over-prepared than in a situation where you’re stranded in the heat or rain with a dead battery or to unintentionally start a wildfire with a hot parked car or exposed rims.
These may seem like common sense, but a reminder for all year round to buckle up, put your phones down and not drive impaired — that includes driving drowsy! Always try to get a good night's sleep before a trip.
