With heavy traffic and aggressive drivers changing lanes suddenly, it is a good idea to opt for a compact car to take up less space on the road and be able to fit into almost any parking spot. When planning to leave the city limits and venture out into nature, a 4-wheel-drive car is recommended.
Within the city, there is a maximum speed limit of 25 mph and 55 mph on secondary roads outside built-up areas. Divided highways allow up to 65 mph, and on interstates up to 70 mph is permitted, though there are also stretches of interstates which permit 75 mph. Remember to slow down if the weather or road conditions are poor.

When we Picked up the car the right front tire Air pressure was only at 25 pounds per square inch. We were told to take the car to fire stone on Siegen Lane and have the car repaired. We did so only defined on our trip that fire stone had done nothing to solve the problem.
