Ice

The weather forecast for the week ahead says we should prepare ourselves for some more snow and ice!!!

Driving safely on icy roads
Decrease your speed and leave yourself plenty of room to stop. You should allow at least three times more space than usual between you and the car in front of you.
Brake gently to avoid skidding. If your wheels start to lock up, ease off the brake.


Turn on your lights to increase your visibility to other motorists.


Keep your lights and windshield clean.


Use low gears to keep traction, especially on hills.


Don't assume your vehicle can handle all conditions. Even four-wheel and front-wheel drive vehicles can encounter trouble on winter roads.
