Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
To guard against vehicle damage from potholes:
*Keep all tires properly inflated.
*Leave enough space between your vehicle and the one in front so you can watch for potholes.
*If you can’t avoid a pothole, slow down: Higher rates of speed increase the likelihood of damage, especially on a curved roadway.
*When driving on a particularly pockmarked road, hold the steering wheel firmly to avoid losing control.
*Don’t brake when driving directly over a pothole. This shifts the car’s weight to the front of the wheel and can increase damage.
*Be on the lookout for water that might be hiding a deep pothole.
