14 Ten Things Every Driver Needs To Know

Tips and tricks

Check the road. When driving on winter roads, hit the brake pedal and let it go several times. If you feel that the car stops, the road is good, if you don’t, it means that the road is icy. Do this as often as possible (without creating dangerous situations, of course).

Divide by two. If in summer you can drive at 80 miles per hour, then in winter, you should drive at 40 miles per hour. If you usually turn at 60 mph, then in winter, you should slow down to 30 mph. This way, you will make sure that you will have enough time to react if your car starts drifting.
