10 Points to Consider Before A Road Trip

With so many public holidays coming, a lot amongst us are planning a road trip as a weekend getaway. 

“A good beginning is half the battle won.” So, be it any season, you need to keep your car in good shape and serviced before a road trip. Else, a breakdown means cancelation of all the plans and even waste of your money and time for your friends and family. We at MotorOctane are committed to share 10 important  tips for stress-free road trips.

1. Visit a service centre or your local mechanic to get your cars fluid levels checked.

2. Check the entire underbody for any corrosion

     
3. Check all your car papers, registration, PUC and most importantly car insurance. It is illegal to drive without car insurance. Royal Sundaram General Insurance offers quick online renewal options, if yours has expired

4. Get all your tyres checked and wheels aligned.

5. Ensure all your head and tail lamps are working properly

6. Do check if all the wires are insulated and there are no loose ends.

7. Do carry a puncture repair kit or a mobile tyre inflator.

         8. At the same time even check the spare tyre and get it inflated too.

9.  If its monsoon time, then get your wipers checked. Try and get the AeroTwin wipers, which have a cleaner sweep.

10. Ensure you carry sufficient amount of food and water for safety reasons.
