Ready... Set... Go! The World's Fastest Roads

Our fellow Chevrolet drivers, we understand the occasional desire to put the 'pedal to the metal.' However, it's important to do so legally. That said, we've found the top five roads that encourage faster driving:

1. Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah
There isn't a road, per se, but there is no speed limit, at all.

2. The Autobahns, Germany On speed-unrestricted stretches, an advisory speed limit of 130 kilometres per hour (81 mph) applies.

3. Between Alice Springs and Barrow Creek, Australia
The speed limit will soon be unlimited, just watch out for the kangaroos.

4. Isle of Man, Irish Sea (between Great Britain and Ireland)
Speed at your own risk, but be careful of the strong winds.

5. Nürburgring Motorsports Complex, Germany
It's said to be the home of the most demanding and difficult purpose-built racing circuit in the world.

Tips for Young Chevy Drivers

As a new driver, it's important to be well informed on how to react to certain automotive situations. We understand that driving is unpredictable, that said, you can never be too careful. Be sure your teen is familiar with the following helpful hints:



When you are pulled over by a police officer it is important to safely pull to the side of the road, turn off your car, roll down the window and keep your hands visible.

In the event of a flat tire, be sure to pull off the road completely (out of sight of oncoming traffic) and call roadside assistance. 

After an accident occurs, if possible, turn on your flashers and remove the vehicle from traffic. Then, call the police and exchange insurance information (it never hurts to take pictures of the damage for your records).

Avoid further interacting with those experiencing a great amount of road rage. Instead, try to best avoid the situation and take deep breaths.
