Winter Driving You may want to put winter emergency supplies in your trunk. Here are some tips for winter driving: Have your Buick in good shape for winter. Be sure your engine coolant mix is correct. 0 Snow tires can help in loose snow, but they may give you less traction on ice than regular tires. If you do not expect to be driving in deep snow, but may have to travel over ice, you may not want to switch to snow tires at all. 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 a couple of reflective warning triangles. And, if you will be driving under severe conditions, include a small bag of sand, apiece of old carpet or acouple of burlap bags to help provide traction. Be sure you properly secure these items in your vehicle. 166
