HOW TO PREPARE YOUR CAR FOR WINTER DRIVING

Old or not, cars need attention. This is especially true when you live in an area that goes through extreme temperature or weather changes. Stop taking your car for granted and give this a quick read. If anything, ask yourself when you last checked these items. The last thing you need is to get stranded on the motorway with the family during the middle of winter.

WINTER DRIVING TIPS

Here are some safe-driving tips that will help you when roads are slick with ice or snow:

Get the feel of the road by starting out slowly and testing your steering control and braking ability. Avoid spinning your tires when you start by gently pressing your gas pedal until the car starts to roll. Start slowing down at least three times sooner than you normally would when turning or stopping.
