MACON, Ga. — Its almost Christmas, and that means that roads are going to be very busy this weekend.
13WMAZ spoke with one family who was stopped to get gas on their way to see their daughter in Florida.
Michael Montgomery says that being with family is what it's all about during the holidays.
he says they are going to see their daughter in Florida, and are also excited because they are gifting their grandson their car this Christmas as a surprise and will be flying back home after staying a few days.
He says folks should be careful and courteous on the roads, and keep safety at the top of your mind.
He says you have to know and be confident in your driving skills, because sometimes you have to play the offense and defense on the road.
Drivers should also make sure that their lights are working properly (especially emergency lights), and that they have a road safety kit with them.
Happy holidays and safe driving!
