As an individual driver, it is important that you make sure your vehicle is always fit for the road, and there are some aspects of your vehicle that require your attention more regularly than an annual MOT or service. Some basic safety checks you can do include checking your exterior lights, windscreen wipers, the condition of seat belts, whether the horn works, the tyre pressure and condition, and the engine oil levels. If you are unsure how to do any of these checks, a quick search online will give you the guidance you need.
