Your Driving and the Road
After Off-Road Driving
Remove any brush or debris that has collected on the underbody, chassis, or
under the hood. These accumulations can be a fire hazard.
After operation in mud or sand, have the brake linings cleaned and checked.
These substances can cause glazing and uneven braking. Check the body
structure, steering, suspension, wheels, tires, and exhaust system for damage.
Also, check the fuel lines and cooling system for any leakage.
Your vehicle .will require more frequent service due
to offroad use. Refer to
the Maintenance Schedule for additional information.
Driving at Night
Night driving is more dangerous than day driving. One reason
is that some
drivers are likely to be impaired-by alcohol or drugs, with night vision
problems, or by fatigue.
Here are some tips on night driving.
Drive defensively. Remember, this
is the most dangerous time.
Don't drink and drive (See "Drunken Driving"
in the Index for more on
this. problem.)
Adjust your inside rearview mirror to reduce the glare from headlights
behind you.
Since you can't see as well, you may need to
slow down and keep
more space between you and other vehicles. It's hard
to tell how fast
the vehicle ahead is going just by looking at its taillights.
