Driving in snowy weather can be a challenge. LEACREE suggests some tips to help you make winter driving a safer experience.
1. Inspect Your Vehicle
Check the tire pressure, engine oil and antifreeze levels fastidiously before you hit the road.
2. Slow Down
Compensate for the poor traction by reducing your speed. Moreover, going slow will also give you more time to react if anything goes wrong.
3. Give Yourself Some Extra Space
Leave plenty of room between your car and the vehicle in front of you so that you have enough space to move out of harm’s way in case of unpredictable situations.
4. Stay Smooth
In cold weather, try hard to refrain from doing anything sudden -sudden braking, sudden acceleration, comering, etc. If the situation demands you to slow down suddenly on a slick road, pump your brakes lightly.
5. Pay Attention to the Tire Spray
If there’s a lot of water being sprayed, the road is definitely wet. If the tire spray is relatively less. it means that the roadway has started to freeze and you need to exercise additional caution.
6. Turn Your Lights On
The visibility is quite poor in inclement weather conditions. So, don’t forget to turn on the headlights of your car.
