Your
Driving
and
the
Road
After
Off-Road
Driving
Remove any brush or debris that has collected on the underbodv. 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 off-road use. Refer to
the Maintenance Schedule for additional information.
Driving
at
Night
AN450005
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.
