The snow is falling and it’s time for a refresher course on some winter driving safety tips for when you head out for the holiday season! Especially if your plans find you traveling on the highway! With everyone out and about to visit family for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and many other holidays there is a higher likelihood of traffic, agitated driving, and accidents! So buckle up, take a look at those tips below, and be sure to stay safe out there this winter! Destination Kia’s Winter Driving Tips: Be alert and allow more distance between your vehicle and others. Use your brakes carefully.  Brake early and carefully as it takes more time and distance to stop in adverse conditions. Don’t use “cruise control” in wintry conditions. Be courteous to other drivers. Keep to the right except to pass, using turn signals to alert other drivers of your intentions. Always buckle your seat belt and require your passengers to do the same. Reduce speeds. Remember that the posted speed limit is for ideal travel conditions. Allow for extra travel time or consider delaying trips if the weather is inclement. Don’t use your hand-held cell phone while driving, as mandated by law. Use your headlights, as required by law.

Fall is in full swing and that means that Halloween is right around the corner! Take your spooky season spirit to the next level by decorating your vehicle! You could plan a fun costume/prop duo with your ride or just trick out your car for any trunk-or-treaters that pass by! Take a look at some of Destination Kia’s Halloween decorating tips and get into the mood this Halloween season! We can’t wait to see what you come up with! Destination Kia’s Halloween Decorating Tips: Road safety should always come first! First and foremost if you’re planning on driving your car, it is important to be sure that your decorations don’t become driving hazards. Secure your decorations firmly, keep window decals and stickers from obstructing view and remember not to hang anything from either your interior or exterior mirrors! Stationary vehicles are full of possibilities! If you’re using your vehicle as a prop or for Trunk-or-Treat purposes then by all means, go crazy! Just make sure the parking brake is on and that the keys aren’t within reach of any of your young trick-or-treaters! And it might also help to keep in mind that you’ll have to undecorate your vehicle next time you want to take a ride so don’t go overboard! Save yourself some cash by DIYing your decorations! Styrofoam, cardboard, construction paper, and corn syrup are your new best friends! Make your decorations exactly to your specific needs and get the kids involved so the whole family can have some Halloween fun! Match your costume to your cars! The scooby doo gang and their mystery machine, Batman and the batmobile, and so many more fun costumes you can do with your ride! Step it up a notch and use your vehicle as the ultimate prop!
