The hot and humid weather is here – summertime in Ontario is in full force! With family road trips and long drives to the cottage, it’s important to practice safe driving. Awareness and safety on the roads should be a top priority this summer season.
Safe Driving Practices
Here are a few tips from the Ministry of Transportation on summertime driving:
- Make sure there is a working seatbelt for every person in your vehicle
- Check and adjust mirrors to reduce your blind spots as much as possible
- Don’t let extra items like sporting or camping equipment block your view of the road
- Make sure loads are securely tied to your vehicle
- Stay within the maximum speed limit posted on signs along your route
- Be patient if traffic is delayed
