Winter Driving
Include an ice scraper, a small brush or broom, a
supply of windshield washer fluid, a rag, some winter
outer clothing, a small shovel, a flashlight, a red cloth
and a couple
of
reflective warning triangles. And,
if
you
will be driving under severe conditions, include a
small bag
of
sand, a piece of old carpet or a couple of
burlap bags to help provide traction. Be sure you
properly secure these items in your vehicle.

the road probably have good traction.

You’ll have a lot less traction or “grip” and will need to be
very careful.
Here are some tips for winter driving:
Have your vehicle
in
good shape for winter.
You may want to put winter emergency supplies in
your vehicle.
