Smooth cornering
Avoid braking or gear changing in cor

僅 Keep your headlights clean and prop

be temporarily blinded, and it will take

僅 Keep your windscreen wiping equip

ment in good shape. Replace your
windscreen wiper blades when they
show signs of streaking or missing
areas on the windscreen.
僅 If your tyres are not in good condition,
