Below are some preparations when homecoming with a private car. Here are the complete preparations:

1. Prepare your physical condition to stay fit

When you are about to go home, the first thing you need to prepare is your physical condition. Driving a private car requires a fit physical condition so that your concentration is not disturbed. Make sure you get enough rest and consume vitamins and nutritious food before driving. If you feel unwell, you can postpone your homecoming to avoid any unwanted incidents.

2. Ensure the car is in good condition

Not only your physical condition needs to be fit, but the car you will drive also needs to be in good condition. It is advisable to check and maintain the car thoroughly before homecoming at the official Daihatsu dealer. This is to ensure optimal engine performance and reduce the risk of accidents.

3. Be wise in bringing luggage and passengers

The next preparation for homecoming with a private car is that you must be wise about what luggage you need to bring. Additionally, you also need to limit the number of passengers. Make sure you do not carry passengers and luggage exceeding the maximum capacity of the car as determined by the manufacturer.

4. Bring cash

Although nowadays everything is digital, it is better to still carry cash. As we know, not all places have digital payment options, for example, when using public parking, going to public restrooms, or dining at street vendors.

5. Maintain battery power and prepare internet quota

In this digital age, you can use digital maps to facilitate your travel route. Therefore, you need to maintain your battery power so that your phone does not suddenly die. To address this situation, you can prepare a power bank as an emergency charger. Additionally, you need to prepare an internet quota.

6. Prepare provisions

Preparing food and drink provisions for homecoming can save on expenses. Because usually, food and drinks sold outside are more expensive. Additionally, preparing provisions can prevent hunger and dehydration when driving long distances.

8. Prepare a budget

Preparing a homecoming budget well in advance is essential, especially if you are bringing a private car. The budget for homecoming with a private car is relatively larger because you need to prepare for physical condition, the car, provisions, and accommodation if the journey is too far.

9. Ensure the fuel tank is always full

The next preparation for homecoming with a private car is that you must ensure your car's fuel tank is full. This condition anticipates running out of fuel during a long journey and traffic jams.

10. Prepare accommodation

When your homecoming journey is too far, you need accommodation to rest. This can also protect you from theft of belongings, such as in rest areas.

11. Bring all children's supplies

If you are homecoming with your little one, you need to bring all your children's supplies such as diapers, tissues, drink bottles, food, toys, and so on.

Thus, this is information regarding preparations for homecoming with a private car that you must know. By following the tips above, you can homecoming safely without worry.  I hope this is useful!
