Ahead of a busy week of travel, the Red Cross of Northern Nevada is sharing some helpful tips to get home safely on the roads.

They recommend packing an emergency kit in your car filled with snacks, first aid supplies, water, and more before traveling.

They also want to remind drivers to slow down in bad weather and traffic, put their phones away, wear seatbelts, and take breaks on long trips.

The American Red Cross estimates 73 million people will be traveling on the roads this Thanksgiving.
