Before embarking on your drive through the Rockies, make sure to:
- Check the weather forecast beforehand and adjust your route accordingly.
- Take regular breaks to rest and stretch while driving, especially if you have a long journey ahead of you.
- Slow down in mountainous areas where visibility may be reduced due to fog or snow.
To avoid common hazards, always:
- Keep an eye on the road and weather conditions, and adjust your speed accordingly.
- Avoid driving when tired or distracted, as this can increase the risk of accidents.
- Use high beams when possible to improve visibility, but be aware that they may not be necessary in areas with heavy snowfall or fog.
