Nothing new here. This is just a friendly reminder for everybody else.
Check the weather before you
go.
Check road restrictions before you go.
Don’t tailgate.
Leave plenty of room to slow
down.
Carry a brush and scrapper to clear
snow and ice before you
drive.
If you don’t have 4 wheel drive, figure out how to
install chains before you need
them.
Slow down. The coefficient of friction is changeable and
not always well
known.
Do you know how to engage your 4 wheel
drive or is it automatic?
Make sure you have fresh wiper blades and window washer solution.
Careful on the brakes, especially if you don't have Anti-lock brakes (ABS).
Have a winter emergency kit on board;
water, blankets, gloves, food.
Bring your cell phone with a full
battery and a charger.
Make sure you have plenty of gas in the tank. You could get stuck in traffic or a snowdrift.
Practice skids and slides in an empty
parking lot. Practice makes
perfect.Drive defensively. Some people never grasp any of the above tips.
