Labor Day weekend means full highways and a lot of drivers trying to make up time. Three things make the trip easier. Build in more time than the map says. Put your phone out of reach before you start the engine instead of trusting yourself to ignore it. And leave extra following distance, because in holiday traffic that gap is the only thing you control. This weekend also closes out the 100 Safest Days of Summer. Enjoy it, and get home safe.
