Before you get behind the wheel of the car, make sure that you feel good: you do not have a headache, eyes, hands, feet. This does not mean that you should take before each trip a complete physical examination. But joking health when it comes to such liability as driving, especially at night or during rush hour, it is not worth it. We must always remember that you are responsible not only for their lives but also the lives of other drivers, pedestrians and passengers. Fatigue - is one of the first causes of the loss of alertness of drivers, which can lead to accidents.
One can not underestimate the importance of rest for drivers before the trip by car, especially when you plan a long trip. Before a long trip should sleep, do not load yourself hard work, do not lift weights. Also, do not overeat. On a full stomach is more difficult to focus on the road - it's physiology, it should not be neglected.
Also need to pay attention to the clothes. First, remember to think about fashion when you are driving, you should not. Of course, if you are planning to go to a banquet - this is another case. But if you have to ride long enough, try to dress so that you feel as comfortable as possible. Girls are not recommended to wear high heels. Men do not wear tight jeans, tight shoes: Clothes should not hamper movement. Narrow shoes prevent toes warm up - this leads to onimeniyu. Legs with a long stay of the driver behind the wheel of exposed muscle tension, so quickly get tired. It is necessary to stop periodically and knead them.
Second, try to dress warmly in winter. Never rely on the stove car 100%. Car - this technique, and it can also refuse. If it gets hot, you can remove excess clothing: fever aching bones are not.
Proceed directly to the car himself. Because of his "health" is also necessary to remember! Especially because of its "health" and your dependent. Before each ride first look at the wheel, but better check the pressure gauge, which you should be sure - the pressure must comply with the standard. Wheels - a propulsion vehicle (for those who have caused surprise given the name - it's not a bug, because the wheels of the car are the direct driving force of the vehicle, according to the theory of the car, unlike the engine from an engine is the engine of the vehicle (motor) transmits torque the wheels and the wheels, in turn, move the body, i.e. to cause movement of the vehicle itself). Good condition tires - a pledge of accident-free driving.
The following criterion of "healthy" car - these are elements of light and sound alarm. Wipe all the glass, mirrors, lights, state number plate, rear lights, parking lights and brake lights. Inside, wipe the dashboard to clearly see all the information on the trip without distortion. If you wear glasses, then wipe them as well. By the way, if necessary, wear sunglasses. It is desirable that they were special car - now in pharmacies sell these glasses. After wiping Check all lighting fixtures. To check the brake light (stoplights) ask someone to press the brake pedal, and see for yourself, whether they are burning. If one of the signals is not lit, check the bulb. Check the operation of the wiper in all modes: rain, snow, hail, you should not be surprised.
Finally, check that all the liquid filled in the right quantity. Namely, brake, engine oil, transmission, antifreeze (antifreeze), washer fluid glasses. Remember that failure in your car were there, are expected. Rate their severity. Try one, if possible, to the help of professionals.
Documents - this is perhaps not quite important for the safety point, but still very significant for a quiet car ride. Remember that all documents have expiration dates. Driver's license, proof of insurance CTP, vehicle passport, certificate of registration of the vehicle, power of attorney to manage vehicle pass state inspection - this is the main list of documents that must be available, and preferably at hand.
And most importantly, what you must remember sitting behind the wheel - that's what you have to manage means high risk. Observe traffic rules and respect pedestrians and other road users!
