0 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 aroundyou. If you have no blankets or extra clothing, make body insulators from newspapers, burlap bags, floor rags, mats -- anything you can wrap around yourself or tuck under your clothing to keep warm. 0 Snow can trap exhaust gases under your vehicle. This can cause deadly CO (carbon monoxide) gas to get inside. CO could overcome youand kill you. You can't see it orsmell it, so you might not know it is inyour vehicle. Clear away snow from around the base of your vehicle, especiallyany that is blocking your exhaust pipe. And check around again from time to time to besure 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. YOUcan run the engine to keep warm, but be careful. 4-27
