Prestone gives us these essential travel tips to keep everyone safe
Here’s how you can keep your vehicle in tip-top condition for those inevitable long drives, according to Prestone.
The year 2022 is here! While the start of the year symbolizes hope, it also serves as a reminder. We all remain vigilant, particularly as the threats of new COVID-19 variants still lurk around.
The National Capital Region (NCR) and some of its nearby provinces are now placed under a higher alert level status. This is due to the upward trend in the number of cases. And yes, this means stricter safety protocols and limited outside activities for Filipinos.
Long drives, however, are inevitable for some. For instance, those who went to their respective provinces for holidays are starting to go back to the metro. Meanwhile, those in the frontline, especially health workers, sometimes need to travel for long hours to reach their patients.
