IT MATTERS TO US CIMon Mb Sotos Co, 111 West 4OH1 St, N.Y.C. (212) 391 0550 K & Car Checkup Before setting out on a long-distance trip, give your car the once-over. Have your mechanic check the steering wheel for excessive play, and make any necessary adjustments. Have your brakes and brake linings checked too. Check your tires for tread depth. Smooth tires reduce driving control, and can blow out at high speeds. Clean all windows inside and out, and be sure that decals or luggage don't block the driver's view. Make sure you have plenty of windshield wiper fluid and your wipers are in good condition. Check lights and turn signals to make sure they all work properly. —National Safety Council
