Tips for Surviving a Road Trip

Rockin' tunes, truck stops and unhygienic toilets. It is crucial to maintain a clear head on a road trip or things can get messy up in ere.

1. Have a good, well thought out playlist so you don't end up listening to ABBA

2. When your windscreen wiper breaks off in pouring conditions on a highway... DON'T scream... remain calm and pull over.

3. Don't listen to boys for directions... they have no idea.

4.  Trust the GPS and not your gut instinct.

5. Name your GPS Karen.

6. Pick up every hitch hiker you see.. they may give you $10 and you'll be able to afford the luxury of a Big Mac.

7. DON'T leave sausages to rot in your boot... There will be an abnormal smell, making it an unpleasant trip.

8. ALWAYS remember to pack underwear

9. ALWAYS be aware of where the exits are. You'll end up swerving in front of a truck and mounting a road island.

10. NEVER use a bathroom where you need a key.

11. Sing-a-long to Bohemian Rhapsody is a MUST.

12. If car is leaving before 8am... wear your pyjamas.

13. ALWAYS have a bag in hand... you never know when someone will need a little spewy.

14. Stock up on snacks and enery drinks... preferably sugary ones.

15. If someone in the car falls asleep, get a permanent marker and give them some whiskers.
