auto_rental_tips

Have you ever had a rental car and reached for the gear shift on the center console when in actuality it was on the steering column? When you rent a vehicle in the course of doing business, it requires focus, attention and preparation every time. Here are some tips to keep you safe.

Driver:

  • Be mentally ready to drive.
  • Wear your seatbelt
  • Look around before putting the vehicle in gear. Know what’s in front, beside and behind you.
  • Pedestrians have the “right away” – so Yield!
  • Upon arrival, put the vehicles in park. Turn vehicle off and don’t forget the keys.
  • Be physically ready to drive.
  • Taking allergy, cold or other meds? Know how they can affect driving so you can plan ahead.
  • 90% of a driver’s reaction time depends on vision. When did you last have yours checked?
  • Passengers are ready and wearing a seatbelt.

Vehicle:

  • Doors closed.
  • Trunk and hood closed.
  • Put on your seatbelt. Any seat – every time.
  • Adjust seat.
  • Locate wipers, turn signals, all gauges, window controls and temperature control.
  • Adjust mirrors.
