Off the Road Again

With the song School’s out for Summer, by Alice Cooper, blazing in the forefront of every student’s mind, that has seen the movie Dazed and Confused, and every teacher that remembers what it was like to be a student in the 70’s, it is now June, and summer is here. The bags have been packed, for weeks, in anticipation, for this date, and the only thing to do now, is hit the open road with friends and family for the next two and a half months. For those of us, like me, who do not have the two and a half months off, for summer, we beg for our two weeks and head out as well. A lot of people fly to their destinations, but there are still quite a few that still love the adventure of the open road that brings the sense of liberation and adventure of the unknown; the road becomes a notebook to fill with the memories of family and friends that can never be replaced.

I am pretty sure you can remember being cramped, in the car, with your brothers or sisters; the trip started fine, everyone was in a great mood, but after two or three hours, maybe less, World War Three started. One of the siblings was screaming, at the top of their lungs, veins on the side of the neck ready to burst, that they had to go to the bathroom, right when you pass a sign that read: Next Bathroom 1,200 Miles. You could not stand each other, Mom was threatening to turn the car around, Dad had turned into Mr. Hyde, and there were still eighteen more hours to go. I loved it. Those were the memories that became today’s embarrassing stories, twenty years later, at the Thanksgiving dinners, Christmas dinners, and every other family gathering that you could ever think of.

God forbid that you got a flat tire, or the car broke down on the side of the road. That is where we, Pronto Insurance, come in with our Road Side Assistance. Being a family oriented company, we want to make sure your memories aren’t tainted with the bad experience and feelings of helplessness in an unfamiliar area.

We can even help you with the information needed to reserve hotels, book car rental services, maps, trip itineraries, and most information that would make the trip planning a little bit easier.
