Driving Tips and Tricks
Tips for safe driving in winter
conditions:
- Scrape all snow and ice
off of your vehicle- including the roof!
- Keep your headlights
clear of ice, snow, and mud
- Do not wear restrictive
clothing, such as bulky jackets or mittens
- Keep a continuous flow
of warm air circulating, not hot air- hot air will make you drowsy!
- Adjust the driver's
seat for minimum strain
- Anticipate
- Slow down!
Tricks for safe driving
in all conditions:
- When driving during
daylight hours, wear a good pair of sunglasses to reduce eye strain and
fatigue.
- Any time you drive in
less than ideal weather, make it a habit to turn "Wipers on, Lights
on."
- When driving at night,
avoid looking directly at oncoming headlights. Instead, look down and to
the right,
- and follow the edge of
the road.
