Will you be going on a Labor Day weekend road trip?  New York City is considered the most road rage-inducing city in the United States.  Here are a few tips to help make your road trip planning a little bit less stress-inducing.

Weekend Driving Tips:

• Mobile Apps – You should never use your phone while driving, but mobile phone maps have become an integral part of the road-trip experience.  Just make sure you keep your phone use hands-free!  Let your passengers help you out or turn up the volume on your GPS.
• Plan Ahead – 62% of people find that price is the most important part of renting a car.  Size is the second most important feature, followed by rental type, style, and brand.  Do your research before leaving for your road trip!
• Get Plenty of Sleep – Sleepiness is a contributing factor to road rage.  If you are sleepy, you are more likely to become annoyed with other drivers.  Get plenty of sleep the night before your trip!
• Don’t Forget to Breathe – If you notice yourself getting tense, take a break to stretch.  Periodically rolling down the window and breathing deeply and slowly is also a great way to relieve tension on your trip.
