The holidays are over, but the snowy road conditions will be around for many of us for a couple more months. Start the New Year with a quick refresher on safe driving in bad road conditions. We’ve compiled a list here of a few tips to stay calm and safe if you must drive in the worst of conditions.
This will give you more time to react to icy patches and avoid accidents. If you are fishtailing or sliding it usually means you are going too fast.
Understanding how your car, and brakes specifically, react to ice and snow is imperative to your safety. Find an empty parking lot to test them out.
If you are sliding, calmly turn your car wheels in the opposite direction.
We hope you find these tips useful and that you stay safe on the roads this winter. Comment below with anything you would add to our list!
