Are you looking for a trustworthy used car near Lancaster? then be sure to contact LCM Used Car Center today. While we have a complete inventory of pre owned cars, trucks and SUVS our focus is not on just the sale. We like to make sure everyone is safe on the road, prompting some tips to stay safe during the fall months.

 

The first thing to keep an eye out for in the fall are leaves, and we're not talking about leaf peeping here; we're talking about piles of wet leaves on the road. They can be slick. In fact, they can be as bad as ice. That said, if you see large amounts of wet leaves on the road, slow down and drive with caution.

 

We can always expect rain during these months. Watch the temperatures when you're planning on driving through wet weather and be sure to drive slower in heavy rain. It's also helpful to check your wiper blades to make sure they're in good shape to provide maximum visibility.

 

After checking your wiper blades, our next tip is to check your tire pressure. This is important to do in the fall because the temperature tends to fluctuate more than at any other point in the year, and this can lead to decreased pressure in your tires.

 

And finally, be mindful of the time. We're not just talking about remembering to set your clocks back either. We're referring to the fact that we lose a minute of daylight every day leading up to daylight savings. That means earlier sunsets and more nighttime driving.
