SUMMARY: AAA experts warn that Labor Day weekend travel is expected to break records, with more people driving to their destinations. Ryan Adcock of AAA highlights increased traffic on main interstates and the higher risk of accidents. Drivers should slow down and move over for disabled vehicles with flashing hazard or emergency lights, including police and AAA tow trucks. In heavy traffic, maintain safe distances, adhere to speed limits, and stay fully attentive. With lane closures lifted, beware of construction debris and be prepared with an emergency kit, spare tire, phone charger, and items to stay occupied while waiting for help.

AAA said more people are choosing to drive to their destination this Labor Day weekend, which adds more of a chance for potential accidents.
