Winter Weather Driving Tips

Jump to calendar

Winter weather can quickly bring unexpected poor driving conditions so make sure that both you and your vehicle are ready for ice and snow.

Prior to the winter driving season prepare your vehicle with a winter emergency kit and have a mechanic check your brakes, battery, and belts on your vehicle.
 

  • Remove ice and snow from windows, mirrors and all vehicle lights before you drive and as often as needed.
  • Remove snow and ice from the hood and roof of your vehicle. State law states that if snow or ice from your vehicle strikes a vehicle or person and causes death or injury, you can be ticketed.
  • Slow down and increase following distance.
  • Beware of roads that may look wet, but are actually frozen, often referred to as “black ice.”
  • Do not pass or get between trucks plowing in a plow line (several trucks plowing side by side).
