4h agoAAA is urging those
hitting the road this weekend to have their vehicle checked before a trip to
avoid a breakdown.
Nationwide, AAA
anticipates more than 545,000 breakdowns for the Labor Day holiday, Monday,
Aug. 29 through Monday, Sept. 5.
Battery problems, flat
tires and lockouts are the top items members seek help for.
“Easily preventable
problems will lead to more than a half-million holiday breakdowns, which are
not only inconvenient, but also can be deadly,” said Robert Sinclair Jr.,
of AAA Northeast.
AAA says some tips
include battery testing before a trip and to make sure tires are properly
inflated before a trip.
