Tips in Winter Driving

During winter, we need to prepare our cars as we prepare ourselves from snow and cold temperature. Exerting extra effort to ensure that your automobile is ready for winter and knowing what it takes to drive safely through ice could even save your life.

Here are a few tips that will keep you and your passengers safe throughout the winter season:

• You have to winterize your car. Adding a proper amount of anti-freeze to the engine coolant will protect your car against freezing and corrosion. Always inspeact the battery and breaks for possible flaws.

• Change your motor oil. Winter grade oil ensures reliable starting. You need to use the right windscreen fluid recommended for your auto. Along with the right wipers, an anti-freeze solution will always keep your windscreen clean.

• When driving off-road, be extra careful of snow building up under your 4x4 for it can cause accidents. Ensure the engine area is cleared out at all times and check to the temperatures of oil, transmission fluid and other important fluids. Always watch for chunks of ice getting caught under your car.

• When entering a pavement, make the necessary speed adjustment to prevent oversteer and understeer.

• Be prepared before you hit the road. Bring emergency supplies such as flashlight, blanket, sand or salt, and an ice scraper which will help you if you stock in an icy road. You must also bring road flares, wool blankets, jumper cables, thick socks, hat, mittens, and tire chains. Don't forget to include basic medicines and essential personal supplies.
