How to prepare for a long journey by car: what to consider, what to take with you

Cars need preparation before a long trip:

Get serviced. No one likes being stuck on a highway where there is not always a connection to call a tow truck. Check the brake system, battery, headlights, flashlights, coolant level, and whether there is windshield washer in the reservoir.

Check the wheels: is it necessary to do a wheel alignment, evaluate the tire pressure. If necessary, stop by a tire shop. And take a spare tire: no one is safe from sharp stones on the road.

On such a trip, most of the sensations depend on the car. Therefore, it is worth paying special attention to its serviceability.
