Drive Safely

Budget Rent-a-Car is a partner of Brake, the road safety charity.

To ensure safe driving, here is Brake's Pledge to Drive Safely
- a simple twelve-point plan that all drivers can follow:

BELT UP - Front and back and ensure children are correctly restrained

SLOW UP - Abide by limits and only overtake if totally safe

WAKE UP - Never drive tired and take breaks every two hours on long journeys

SOBER UP - "Just say no" to alcohol or drugs if driving

LOOK UP - Look out for people on bikes, horses and foot

WISE UP - If it's night, bright or bad weather, go slower

BUCK UP - Calm yourself before driving if stressed, angry or excited

MOVE UP - Adjust head restraints so the top is no lower than the top of your head

SHARPEN UP - Wear glasses or lenses if you need them

SHUT UP - Switch your phone to voicemail

BACK UP - From the vehicle in front - it's your braking space in a crisis

CHECK UP - Check brakes, tyres, lights, mirrors and windows
