Winter Driving
Here are some tips for winter driving:
Have your vehicle in good shape for winter.
Include an ice scraper, a small brush or broom, a
supply of windshield washer fluid, a rag, some winter
outer clothing, a small shovel, a flashlight, a red
cloth and reflective warning triangles. And, if you will be
driving under severe conditions, include a small bag
of sand, a piece of old carpet or a couple of burlap bags
to help provide traction. Be sure you properly secure
these items in your vehicle.
Driving on Snow or Ice
Most of the time, those places where your tires meet
the road probably have good traction.
However, if there is snow
or
ice between your tires and
the road, you can have a very slippery situation.
You'll have a lot less traction or "grip" and will need to
be very careful.
You may want to put winter emergency
supplies in
your vehicle.
