Petron Lakbay Alalay is now ready and going full blast for the Holy Week. We know that many motorist and travelers will go out of town to take advantage of the week holiday and also vacation. In order to have a safe travel around the long road, Petron Lakbay Alalay will be installing a lot of signage to remind all motorist to check their brakes, their engine oil, wear safety belts, go slow down or don't over take and take a rest to the nearest Petron station.
Petron Lakbay Alalay is doing this advocacy and campaign for 3 decades, and it all started with Petron volunteers and employees driven by their Lakbayanihan spirit to promote safety on the road.
What to expect this year?
Petron Lakbay Alalay mentioned that their road assistance program will expand in all major roads and highways, especially to roads with Petron stations. This year's campaign with the tag line "the best ang byahe" or the travel is the best! will be Petron's all year round campaign to promote road safety and driver's responsibility.
Petron Lakbay Alalay will focus not only for drivers and cars, but also for their passengers. Their road assistance program will be present on each Petron stations so check the list below to know where they are located.
For those who are at home, Petron will also be going to have a Bisita Gasulista campaign, this to ensure the safety of your homes, especially those who are using LPG tanks for cooking. They will be visiting your home to remind everyone to check their LPG tank, their stove, tubes for possible leaks and danger.

Thanks guys for reading my blog post- --btw here's an old photo when I was still in driver mode.
Maybe soon, I go driving again, but even if Im a passenger, I always mention road safety and remind my driver to be careful and always follow the road safety signs.
Here are some old tips that I have posted years ago, let me share some here.
Here’s some of the tip that I can share for your road safety
1. Check your car’s condition before making a trip, that includes checking the engine oil, brake fluids, water in the radiator, battery, tire air pressure and also the reserve tire.
2. Make sure you carry your car’s tools, just incase you need it
3. Plan your trip well, remind everyone that you have plans to make a pit stop in a Petron gas station for restroom break, car check and gas up.
4. Use Google Maps to map your route and you can search “PETRON” in Google Maps to pin point how far the next Petron station to your current location.
5. Sit back, relax and drive safely.. Obey and observe traffic and road rules whenever you are on a road.
6. Buckle up and always seat belts are strapped.
7. Bring the important items you need to bring, loading too much items on your car can affect fuel consumption and also speed. The lighter the items on the car, the better to have fuel efficiency
8. Don’t look too much on your Google Maps or Waze, always put your eyes on the road, let a co passenger be your navigator so that they can do the duty in using Waze for you.
9. If you felt sleepy, I suggest you take a break, pull over at a safe parking area or visit Petron gas station to stretch, rest and have a 10 min power nap, this will save you more energy. If a co passenger is a licensed driver, then ask them to drive it for you while you take a nap while traveling.
10. Don’t play a louder music while on travel, this will weaken your senses and reflexes while driving, just in case an emergency occurs, you can act quickly and sense what’s going on.
And here are some few reminds
Thanks again for reading!!
Dont forget to wear your seatbelts, helmet and always drive safely!
