ensure you&#8217;ve covered all the driving safety bases this winter.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"h-winterize-your-vehicle\">Winterize Your Vehicle<\/h4>\n<p>Your vehicle should be fully outfitted for anything winter weather may throw your way. As you go down your list, here are some things to pay attention to:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"disc-list\">\n<li>Invest in winter tires if you haven&#8217;t already. If you have, check your tire pressure and the treads to make sure they&#8217;re in good shape.<\/li>\n<li>Replace your battery if needed, and make sure your headlights, brake lights, turn signals and hazard lights are working properly.<\/li>\n<li>Check your windshield wipers for damage or wear, and swap out your windshield wiper fluid for a winter mix with a de-icing agent.<\/li>\n<li>Get an oil change and top off key fluids, such antifreeze and brake fluid.<\/li>\n<li>Stow an emergency kit in the trunk that includes water, non-perishable foods, road flares, blankets, first aid supplies, a flashlight, a small shovel or ice scraper, jumper cables, a tow rope, and salt, sand or kitty litter (for gaining traction on slick roads).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 id=\"h-before-you-leave-home\">Before You Leave Home<\/h4>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re planning a short trip or a long one, keep these simple safety tips in mind:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"disc-list\">\n<li>Consider investing in a block heater. These small, portable heaters can warm up your engine block to help make your car easier to start in extremely low temperatures.<\/li>\n<li>Check the weather reports for your route. Download a weather app or follow your local weather station on social media to stay updated when you&#8217;re travelling.<\/li>\n<li>Review your auto insurance to see what coverage you have in the event of an accident. Keep a copy of your insurance card and vehicle registration in your car or wallet.<\/li>\n<li>Fully charge your phone, and pack a car charger just in case.<\/li>\n<li>Bring warm clothes \u2013 an extra jacket, or even a blanket, in case your car stalls or you get in an accident and have to get out of your car in cold weather.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 id=\"h-staying-safe-on-the-road\">Staying Safe On The Road<\/h4>\n<p>If you&#8217;re confident your vehicle&#8217;s ready for winter weather and you&#8217;ve double-checked your insurance, it&#8217;s time to get going. Just remember to practice these safe driving habits:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"disc-list\">\n<li>Give yourself plenty of time to travel, and don&#8217;t tailgate, especially in bad weather.<\/li>\n<li>Defrost your windshield and mirrors regularly to keep your vision clear.<\/li>\n<li>Drive with your headlights or running lamps on to make sure your car is visible in sleet, icy rain and snow.<\/li>\n<li>Be alert to other drivers, and practice defensive driving.<\/li>\n<li>Skip cruise control in icy or snowy weather; this may make it harder to slow down if you get stuck in a skid or spin.<\/li>\n<li>Stick to main roads, which are more likely to be plowed and salted.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t speed and always wear your seat belt.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Finally, if you&#8217;re ever in doubt, consider postponing or delaying your trip. After all, it&#8217;s better to be safe (not to mention comfy and cozy at home) than sorry!
