Our kid’s safety truly depends on the condition of our vehicle. We all are guilty in one way or the other for ignoring our vehicle. Procrastination only gives birth to bigger problems later. A smart approach is to follow these quick tips while you are at home!

Check your engine

The engine is the soul of your car and you should inspect is visually so there are no leakages or intertwined cables. Pay close attention to the wiring and see if any liquid is being spilt. 

Car brakes

Brakes provide the right amount of friction when you are driving and if the brake system is not functional, you can be more prone to accidents. Check your brake pads and see if anything feels out of place.

Tyre inspection

Examine your tyres for any cuts or bulges. If there are visible signs of damage, you should not ignore it. Driving locally becomes problematic if you have bad tyres. For example, If you are in Wakefield – you should mentally be prepared for any road congestions. Once things go back to normal, traffic flow is predicted to enhance as well. You should book an appointment for later if you feel your tyres are not up to the mark. Ossett Tyre House is a local garage in Wakefield and they can help you find right tyres in Wakefield.
