Stay Safe on the Road this Winter

Temperatures have dropped across South Africa and the Overberg has already experienced severe storms.

 
Five Tips to Prepare for Winter on the Road:

• Check the tread of your tyres (also inspect the spare)
• Replace windscreen wipers
• Keep a raincoat and spare warm clothing in the boot
• Be aware of crosswinds, flying debris, mist, torrential rain and flooding
• Avoid travelling in extreme weather

Servicing your Car

Is your battery getting temperamental on cold mornings? Unsure whether your tyres are ready to face the winter rain? Don’t have a clue on how to change your windscreen wipers? Having hassles with your car’s defogger? Been a while since your car’s last service?
