3 Tips for Safe Trips

Truckers know that breakdowns are one of the biggest setbacks that a driver can face. Even the most well-maintained rigs can suffer a tire blowout, have trouble starting in severe weather or have unexpected engine and drivetrain issues. Keeping your drive free of these issues is always ideal, but here are three tips to help make sure you reach your destination safely and keep your truck running as smoothly as possible.

Look Before You Drive
When's the last time you checked your tires, your oil or just performed a general preventative maintenance check? While these might seem unimportant or routine, they can make a significant difference and keep you safe while minimizing the risk of a breakdown.

Understand the Signs
Newer truckers may not know all of the signs of severely worn tread or underinflated/overinflated tires, but it's important to understand these symptoms to avoid unnecessary repairs. The Internet, which can be boosted by a manufacturer rep firm, has many useful resource websites for new truckers, and our Blog has insights from some of the most experienced mobile mechanics.

No matter where you are in the country, it's useful to have a dependable, on-call mobile mechanic that can be readily available to provide roadside assistance to keep you moving. If you're looking for a Michigan breakdown service, Truck & Trailer Mobile Repair has got you covered!
