Make sure vehicles and drivers are in tip-top condition, comply with health protocols (wear masks, wash hands and keep your distance) while they are in the rest areas, fill up with fuel and electronic money balances. Enough, and obey the signals and direction of the agents and rest if you tire of driving, “he exclaimed.
