Let’s look at some routine safety checks you should perform on your car on a regular basis:
Check the tyre pressure and tyre condition of your car regularly. It is best to check the pressure when the tyres are cool, usually just before you set off on your journey.
Check that the windscreen wipers of your car are working efficiently.
Check your lights such as headlights, indicators, brake and hazard warning lights.
Make sure that the seatbelts in your car have not become visibly damaged. Don’t forget to check that the seatbelts lock properly.
Check that the horn is functioning properly.
Make sure that the levels of various fluids, such as engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, windshield-washer fluid etc, are not running low.
Check the side-view and rear-view mirrors to ensure that they are operating efficiently.
