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.
