We Have The Perfect Checklist For Your Next Inter-State Road Trip

The whole of India has countless beautiful places worth exploring and taking a road trip across the country will surely be an enlightening experience for anyone who loves travelling and seeing new things. The highways and roads are very scenic and what adds more beauty to the mix are the roadside attractions. However, before embarking on a road trip, one must carry all the essential documents to ensure that the trip is convenient and hassle-free. For you, we have got the perfect pre-road trip checklist:

DRIVER'S LICENSE, REGISTRATION CERTIFICATE, POLLUTION CERTIFICATE (PUC)

These are some of the must-have documents you should have with you on a road trip. Always carry the valid, original copies along with a few photocopies of the documents. If not renewed, then get the documents renewed before heading out on the trip.

CAR INSURANCE PAPERWORK

Having car insurance is not only good for the vehicle but also identification purposes. If your license has expired and you do not have much time in your hands, you can always go for an online-issued license.

FASTag

If you are taking a road trip in India, you will have to pay toll taxes on highways. The faster and cheaper way to pay these taxes is the FASTag. Nearly all toll stations have tag readers as well as dedicated FASTag lanes. You can also opt to go through Cash lanes, but they are both time-consuming and expensive.

SNACKS AND WATER

Even though there are many dhabas and stalls present on the highways, you should always carry some light snacks and drinking water on your trip. Frequently stopping at highway restaurants or stalls can prove to be time-consuming. Therefore, stock up on your supply of food and drinks beforehand.

PUNCTURE KIT AND AIR PUMP

Given the condition of some highway roads, mishaps with the wheels can happen at any time. Therefore, it is a sensible option to carry a puncture kit to repair minor punctures, as well as an air pump, to refill a deflated tire. Most cars generally come with a spare wheel and a majority of the modern-day tubeless tires do not get punctured very easily. But it is always better to be safe than sorry.

Aside from everything mentioned above, always carry spare cash with you, because apart from the official documents of your vehicle, everything else can be arranged or taken care of on the road. A truly enjoyable road trip experience can only be achieved if the journey is free of obstacles and hassles, so plan your trip accordingly and make sure to double-check everything before heading out.
