But, long ones are better when someone is with you to keep you safe. For safety 
reasons, and especially on long trips (2 hrs or more) never travel alone. In case
of an accident, you have a witness and you are stronger in numbers curing the car

up to 5 or 7 people renting a vehicle. This way, the cost is split equally making
a weekend trip for 3 days cost $40 or less for the car rental cost including fees,
taxes, etc… Learn how [we save you money](https://www.globecar.com/en/about/we-save-you-money/).

#### Falling asleep

Nowadays, some vehicles have sensors to alert you to stop or take a coffee break
when it senses the car being wobbly or due to certain behaviors. This feature was
conceived due to so many accidents (including fatal ones) occurring as a direct 
result from drivers falling asleep on the wheel while driving. So Safety #1, pull
over if you are tired.
