How to plan a road trip

Thinking over a trip: unforeseen situations on road.

Everyone is looking forward to the long-awaited vacations, and if there is still an exciting journey ahead by car ... A change in the usual environment is the most effective remedy for accumulated fatigue and prolonged depression. Recently, car travel has been gaining popularity rapidly. Previously, only people who had a personal car could afford it, now the real lifesaver are companies that provide a wide range of services regarding car rental.

By renting a car, you can experience incredible freedom of movement, visit the most exotic corners on the planet without being tied to time, place and other not very convenient circumstances.Of course, you need to take into account many factors that can ruin your rest and mood. In the article we will try to consider unforeseen situations that may arise along the way.

Financial aspect

Inexperience and carelessness of the traveler can lead to disastrous consequences. In order to get around sharp corners, we recommend that you pay attention to certain points:

• The choice of transport should not only come from your individual preferences regarding brand, class, etc. First of all, soberly assess your financial capabilities, economic benefits. An excellent option for a long trip is a manual transmission and optimal fuel consumption.

• Go through the lease agreement very carefully to see if insurance is included. This is your insurance against unforeseen situations on the road, no matter how unfortunate it sounds, and no one is insured against accidental traffic accidents.
• Some distributors prescribe special terms of use. It is better to comply with such requirements as timely return of the car, daily mileage limits and so on! This will help you significantly save your budget when returning the vehicle.
• Having booked a car in advance, you can get at very nice prices.

Safety

The financial side and health are of course very important, but in no case should you ignore safety issues. The complete set of the rented vehicle must include:

• Automatic braking system ABS. This is your insurance on slippery roads or in the event that road users do not keep the proper distance.
• The GPS navigator will help you find the best route and not get lost on the way.
• If the spark plugs suddenly fail or a wheel suddenly breaks through, a repair kit, a rechargeable flashlight and a spare wheel will come to your aid.

Remember, any long trip needs to be planned very carefully. We wish you only positive emotions and exciting travel!
