## Resource

UK heatwave hitting record levels, with roads softening like tar and gritters deployed in summer — drivers must slow down, leave more space, and check tire pressure to avoid blowouts. Never leave kids or pets in parked cars — interiors can become deadly hot. AA and RAC warn of 20% more breakdowns, urging AC checks, early morning drives, and basic fluid inspections. If your car’s AC’s weak, postpone trips. Stay cool, stay safe, and be prepared — this heatwave is no joke. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
