Summer road safety starts before you leave home. Discover how preparing yourself as well as your vehicle can make your journey across Spain safer, more comfortable and less stressful.
Before setting off on a summer road trip in Spain, carry out a few simple vehicle checks. From tyres and coolant to batteries and air conditioning, preparation can help keep your journey safe and stress-free.
Spring does not arrive all at once. Changing light, temperature, road conditions, and traffic patterns require drivers to adapt gradually rather than assume conditions have improved.
Safe following distance is not fixed. As temperatures, road surfaces, and traffic patterns change in spring, drivers must adjust their spacing to maintain safe stopping margins.
As temperatures rise in March, road surfaces and tyres begin to behave differently. Heat affects grip, pressure, and surface stability in ways that many drivers overlook.
March marks the transition from winter to spring, but changing seasons bring changing risks. Warmer temperatures, shifting light, and unpredictable conditions can all affect how vehicles behave and how drivers respond.
