As winter weather brings snow, ice, and cold temperatures, it’s important to prepare your vehicle and adjust your driving habits. Here are essential tips to keep you safe on the road:
1. Check Your Tires
Ensure your tires have good tread and are properly inflated. Consider winter tires for better traction on snow and ice.
2. Inspect Your Battery
Cold weather can reduce battery performance. Check your battery’s health and replace it if needed to avoid starting issues.
3. Top Up Fluids
Check engine oil, brake fluid, and antifreeze levels. Use winter-grade windshield washer fluid to prevent freezing.
4. Clear Snow and Ice
Always clear snow and ice from your car’s roof, windows, mirrors, and lights to improve visibility and avoid hazards.
5. Drive Slowly and Stay Safe
Reduce your speed and increase your following distance in snowy or icy conditions. Be prepared for longer stopping distances.
By following these simple tips, you can stay safe and confident on the road this winter.
