.“z=x
If
You’re
Caught
in
a
~Blizzard
If
you
are stopped by heavy
snow,
you
could be
in
a
serious situation. You
should
probably
stay
with
your
vehicle
unless you
h o w
for sure that
you
are
near help and yon can
hike
through the
snow. Here
are some things
to
do
to
summon
help and
keep
yourself
and
your
passengers
safe:
Turn
on
your
hazard flashem
Tie a red
cloth to
your
vehicle
to
alert
police that you’ve been
stopped by the
snow.
*
Put
on
extra
clothing
or
wrap
a
blanket
around
you.
If you
have
no
blankets or extra
clothing,
make
body
insulators
from
newspapers,
burlap
bags,
rags,
floor
mats-anything you
can
wrap
around
yourself or tuck
under
your
clothing
to
keep
warm.
You
can
run
the
engine
to
keep warm,
but
be
careful.
.
..,
Snow

trap
exhaust
gases
und’er p
u r vehicle, This
can
cause
deadly
CO
(carbon
monoxide)
gas
to
get
inside.
CO
could
(weKOme
you
and
kill
you.
You can’t
see
it or smell it,
so
you
might
not
know
it
was
in
your
vehicle.
Clear
away
snow
from
around
the
base
bel
your
vehicle,
especially
any
that
is
blocking
your
exhaust
pipe.
And
check
mund
again from time
to
time
to be
sure
snow
doesn’t
collect
there.
Open
a
window just
a
little on
the
side
of
the
vehicle
that’s
away
from
the
wind.
This
will help keep
CO
out.
