Have them check fluids, tires, lights, wipers, brakes, and your battery. For your comfort, have the mechanics also check your car’s heater and defroster.
Ensure your car is equipped for winter emergencies with essentials like a flashlight, spare tire, tire jack, flares, lantern, and jumper cables, along with additional winter-specific items.
Should you run into bad weather, turn on your lights and take things slow. If other drivers make you feel as if you’re not going fast enough, relax and let them pass you.
If you get ready to head out after a snowstorm, be sure to clear your car completely of snow and ice – Not just the windows.
