Winter and Your Auto

With winter approaching, all drivers are cautioned to use care while driving on slippery roads. Winter's first snowfall can cause numerous motor vehicle accidents. Motorists should adjust their driving to meet road conditions, and speeds should be reduced. Driver visibility can be limited, and stopping distance always increases on slippery roads.

The cold weather puts an extra strain on your car, so this may be the time to check the maintenance of your car. It is wise to have warm clothing in the car during the winter months, in the event you "break down".
