How To Be As Safe As Possible When Attending Car Shows

By: Gregg Hall

There are many car shows but at these many events there are many people as well. Staying safe is your number one concern at these many events.

The first step if you are a woman is to avoid taking a purse with you to an event. A purse snatcher could be right behind you and take your purse then vanish and you wouldn't even know it. This happens to people every year and it happens all the time at every event so you might want to avoid taking a purse with you to a car show.

You will always also want to check out the weather conditions as well before you go; it could be sunny in the morning then turn into the worst rainy day of the season. This will happen if you don't check the weather before you go. It could be sunny but also be too sunny it could say the high is 90 but if you have you and your kids with you it might get too hot for them and yourself quick because you didn't check the heat index. The last thing you will need to deal with at a car show you love is a kid that's had a heatstroke. Once they have overheated you will just need to get them in the a/c in the car and get them some water and be on the way home because more than likely they are going to be sick.

Before you go to a car show you will also want to be sure to see what the food situation is, will the car show you are going to be selling food? If not then you will need to either pack a lunch or leave early and be able to get somewhere quick so you can eat and come back. Many of the car shows today sell hot dogs and stuff like that a their car shows just stuff that is easy to make and make easy money off of. Since there are a good number of people they can usually make a good amount of money on a sunny clear day.

You should always be near a phone or at least have some money to be able to pay for a phone to use. The last thing you will want at a car show is for some emergency to pop up and you have no phone to use. So always at least have some change with you if not a cell phone. These days usually you would have a cell phone but if not you can usually borrow someone's for a quick second in an emergency situation. You never know what could happen at a car show so always be prepared before you leave the house. It is never wise not bring some type of phone with you since you will need it to call in case of a huge emergency. Just at least have money to be able to use a pay phone.
