winter means
hazardous
driving
conditions when even
good drivers
get
tripped up
.
here are
some ways to
make your drive
safer
.
±
Adjust your speed to road conditions± Steep hills, sharp curves, ice, or snow-
covered roads mean trouble±
On a slick road, you can²t count on your brakes to stop you± Stomp on the
brakes and you²re gonna slide±
that's it!
stay cool
and
steer into
the
direction
you're
skidding
!
If you do skid, steer in the direction the rear of the vehicle is headed± If you²re
driving a tractor-trailer, steer away from the direction of the sliding trailer±
Remember, don²t oversteer! Steer it just enough to correct your skid± Stay cool±
