Many people will be traveling by car for Labor Day Weekend. Experts recommend checking vehicles before embarking on a trip. This can be done personally or by a mechanic.

External and internal checks are advised, including tire pressure and fluid levels. Certain vehicle components, such as lights, battery, engine, and windshield wipers, should also be inspected.

In case of an emergency, staying inside the vehicle is recommended. Further guidance on emergency procedures is available from TxDOT.
