Are you ready for Winter Driving?
Driving a vehicle can be a challenging task in winter weather. Too often drivers underestimate the knowledge and skill that safe driving demands and that the potential for vehicle accidents dramatically increases.
Factors which add hazards to driving in the winter:
Ice, snow, and water on road surfaces reduce traction, increase stopping distance, and may result in an uncontrolled skid.
Rising temperatures often cause roads to become more slippery than they are in cold weather.
Black ice is a thin, invisible layer of frost on roadways or other hard surfaces. It commonly occurs around bridges and overpasses but can occur anywhere, on any surface.
