It officially starts on the 15<sup>th<\/sup> of June, so for anyone new to the area and those who just need to brush up on some knowledge, here\u2019s what you need to know when driving here in Peoria, AZ.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>Keep your car safe during dangerous weather<\/h3>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-13583 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/177\/2019\/06\/03055742\/Dark-Clouds-B_b.jpg\" alt=\"Dark clouds\" width=\"392\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/177\/2019\/06\/03055742\/Dark-Clouds-B_b.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/177\/2019\/06\/03055742\/Dark-Clouds-B_b-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 392px) 100vw, 392px\" \/>Make sure your tires aren\u2019t old and have the correct tread on them<\/strong>. The speed that your car can stop is drastically reduced with bad tires even on normal days, not to mention during poor weather. Plus, having good tires can help with the traction your vehicle gets when you drive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If your windshield has cracks or chips, get them fixed<\/strong>. Not only do cracks impair your vision, but moisture can get through those cracks and into your car.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Replace your windshield wipers<\/strong>. It\u2019s monsoon season, which means you\u2019ll need to expect lots of rain hitting your windshield. Your vision will already be impaired by this rain, but bad windshield wipers can make it worse.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Clean your headlights and taillights<\/strong>. This not only improves your sight, but it helps other drivers see you as well. If you need to pull over, be sure to turn off your lights so other drivers don\u2019t think you\u2019re actually on the road.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Replace your brakes if they are bad<\/strong>. It isn\u2019t uncommon to slam on the brakes when visibility is poor. But if you have bad brakes, they can fail at a dangerous time. So, it\u2019s better to prevent this by replacing bad breaks than hoping they last til the end of monsoon season.<\/p>\n<p>If you have to leave your car outside for any amount of time be sure to <strong>clean off the dirt and debris <\/strong>so your vehicle\u2019s paint doesn\u2019t scratch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get some seat covers and mats<\/strong> you can either clean easily or won\u2019t mind tossing out after the season is over.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t use car covers<\/strong>! Seriously, this can damage the paint of your vehicle. It\u2019s much easier (and cheaper!) to clean the muck off your car than it is to repair the damage of lots of collected moisture drying between your car and the cover.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arrowheadmb.com\/blog\/what-is-the-mercedes-benz-roadside-assistance\/\">What is the Mercedes-Benz Roadside Assistance?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Replace your tires before monsoon season starts<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t miss out on your chance to replace your tires before monsoon season starts!
