Driving In Winter

There are countless things & so many other things that you have to do to prepare for driving in the winter, especially when you're planning to drive on your new snow tires - they're so nice that you don't want to mess them up!

There are certain things that you need to do to prepare your car if you're planning on driving in intense winter weather conditions. If you don't have reliable transportation, then it's best if you don't drive at all. These are the things that you should check throughout the whole year; but more importantly in the winter:

1. Make sure your ignition system is working properly.
2. Be positive that your fuel system is in good condition and working.
3. The belts need to be working!
4. The fluid levels need to be at their proper levels.
5. Your brakes need to work! Please be sure that they work perfectly.
6. Exhaust system also needs to work just fine.
7. Your wiper blades have to be better than good because how else are you going to wipe all that ice off?
8. Your snow rims need to fit properly on your car.
9. Tire tread on winter rims needs to be deep enough and your tires have to be at the right pressure.
10. Your lights also have to be working properly; if not, how are you going to see where you're going in all that snow!

If you're planning on driving somewhere far or even somewhere that's a couple miles on your fancy winter rims, make sure that your fuel tank is either full or close to full. When you keep your tank pretty fuel, you reduce condensation and that way, you're providing the maximum advantage in case you're ever in trouble. Another thing you can do is have a CB (Citizens Band) radio so you can use it just in case you're stranded.. which I hope that never happens.

These are the Winter supplies that you should keep in your car no matter what; never take them out!

1. Booster Cables
2. Have more than two blankets - just in case you have to spend the night in your car.
3. Snow shovel and a scraper to scrape out your winter wheels out of the snow.
4. Keep a flashlight and extra batteries for the flashlight.
5. Take extra clothes! Something like a warm hat, some gloves, and even some hiking boots just in case you have to walk somewhere.
6. Store foods that are high calorie & nonperishable like some candy or even some canned nuts.
7. Take some flares or even some reflectors so people driving can know that you're stopped and that you need help.

Another important thing that you should do is use common sense when you're driving near plow; your snow wheels can't protect you from everything. Driving near a plow is like driving next to one of those big semi trucks. Don't always think that the driver is going to see you - their vision is limited. You should stay about 70 feet from the truck so that way the driver can actually see you - 70 feet is like the length of four cars in front of you.

Out of everything, just be sure that you feel safe driving on your winter wheels or whatever snow wheels you have - if you feel the slightest doubt, then it's best that you stay home. You don't want to risk that gut feeling telling you to wait or just stay home; trust me, you'll regret it later. Drive safely!
