Savings Advice for Motorists and Drivers
The Automobile Association of America (AAA) urges motorists to adopt measures to reduce their petrol expenses. These measures include utilising tools such as the Fuel Price Finder to search for the most affordable rates and contemplating opting to pay with cash rather than credit cards. To get the most out of their fuel economy, drivers should also make sure that their vehicles are well maintained, that they combine their errands, and that they drive conservatively.
A Reminder to Drivers Regarding Safety
In addition, AAA advises motorists to be aware of the importance of roadside safety. “If you see a disabled vehicle on the roadside, please move over for the safety of those inside,” said Waiters, a representative for AAA. “These individuals are trapped inside the vehicle.” The “Move Over For Me” campaign emphasises the significance of looking out for other people on the road. This is because the person who is in a car that is disabled could be anyone, including friends, family members, or coworkers.
