Winter Driving
AN480001
Here are some
tips for winter driving:
Have your vehicle
in good shape
for winter. Be sure your engine coolant
mix is correct.
Snow
tires can help
in
loose snow, but
they
may
give you
less
traction
on ice thanregulartires.
If
you
do
not expect to bedriving in deep
snow, butmayhave
to traveloverice,youmaynotwant
to switch to
snow tires at all.
You may want
to
put winter emergency supplies
in your vehicle.
Includeanicescraper,asmallbrushorbroom,asupply
of windshield
washer
fluid, a rag, some winter outer clothing, a small shovel, a
flashlight, a
redcloth,andacouple
of reflectivewarningtriangles.
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
thetime,thoseplaceswhereyourtiresmeettheroadprobablyhave
good traction.
However,
if
there is snow or
ice betweenyourtiresandtheroad,youcan
haveaveryslipperysituation.You’llhavea
lot less traction
or
“grip” and will
needtobeverycareful.
