The busiest travel time of the year may be over but now is when rough road conditions begin. Be prepared for all that winter throws you and the roadways this season with these tech tips and more.
Did You Know? The Federal Highway Commission estimates that more than 116,000 Americans are injured and over 1,300 are killed on snowy, slushy or icy pavement every winter. So be ready before you head out the door and fight the wintry roads. New car technology can help!
In addition to proactive prep, make sure you’re always connected so help is just a button-push away when you need it most this winter.
Check out the self-installed solution like Hum by Verizon which provides drivers with access to information, experts and pinpoint roadside. With Hum, drivers can talk to live Mechanic experts who can help diagnose car troubles, provide cost estimates and recommend local shops to get the work done. In addition, help will be dispatched when you need it most via GPS technology – whether you need help changing a flat during a snowstorm, or need emergency services.
