❄️❄️🚘❄️❄️ Remove all snow from your vehicle before starting a journey, and slow down. ❄️❄️🚘❄️❄️
However, motorists often find themselves driving in poor weather, and this week will have to deal with icy and snowy conditions.
Use the highest gear possible to avoid wheel spin. Select a low gear when travelling downhill, especially if through bends.Remember your only contact with the road surface is your tyres so it is vital that they are up to the task in icy and snowy conditions.Check that tyres are inflated to the correct tyre pressure.
In heavy snow, use your fog lights, turn off your radio and open your window a fraction, so you can hear other traffic, especially at junctions. Do not hang on to the tail lights of the vehicle in front of you as it can give a false sense of security. When you slow down, use your brakes so that the brake lights warn drivers behind you.If the road looks polished or glossy it could be "black ice" - one of winter's worst hazards.
