There is no denying the fact that Corona Virus has taken over the world and is the most disturbing reality check these days. It has changed the way we all live our daily lives. While most of us are following precautions including work from home, there are times when we need to use our four-wheeler. In this scenario, how do we fight the Corona virus while driving and what steps should we follow? Hit the play button to know more through our video
Our video above explains that by taking a few measures while driving your car, you can reduce the risk of being in contact with the virus. All we need to do is alter a few habits. For example, every morning, as a standard procedure, we should sanitize all the door handles of the car. Likewise, every week, we should sanitize the interiors and clean them well with an alcohol-based, or soap-based solution. This will ensure that no germs are present inside the car - on the seats, door pads or fascia.
If possible, lets all delay sending our car to a service center. Most manufacturers will not void your car's warranty in case you jump the recommended schedule by 5-10%. So if your car is due for the 20,000km interval service, you can delay it by a few days and take the car for its service even at 21,000km in our opinion. Doing so will ensure that the car does not come in contact with multiple hands. Likewise, at a fuel pump, get out and open the fuel filler compartment yourself.
Last but not the least, another step you must follow to avoid Corona virus while driving is to avoid giving your car to a valet when you visit a function or a hotel. If you do so, the car will exchange hands with multiple drivers and this could increase the risk of contamination. Keep wet wipes and sanitizers handy at all times and urge others to use it incase they want a ride in your car. All these measures are easy to follow and can go a long way in ensuring you remain as far as possible from Corona Virus.
