Make sure your vehicle is fully prepared before heading out in winter weather. A few simple steps can help keep you safe on icy and snowy roads.
Clear Visibility
Remove all snow and ice from your car, including the windshield, windows, roof, mirrors, and lights. Clear visibility is essential for safe driving.
Inspect Your Tires
Equip your vehicle with winter tires that have deep tread. Proper tires improve traction and control on slippery roads.
Test the Heating System
Ensure your heater and defroster are functioning properly. A working heating system keeps you warm and prevents windows from fogging up.
Keep Your Tank Filled
Maintain your gas tank close to full. This helps prevent fuel line freeze and ensures you’re prepared for unexpected delays.
Important Reminder
If weather or road conditions are unsafe, delay any non-essential trips until conditions improve.
