How to Drive on Snowy and Icy Roads?

[Rodney]

To drive safely on snowy and icy roads, follow these guidelines: 1. Straight-line driving: (1) Maintain sufficient following distance, generally at least double the normal distance. (2) Keep a steady speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. (3) Avoid overtaking unless absolutely confident. 2. Turning: Reduce speed to a minimum before entering a turn, steer slowly and gently. Take wide turns, avoiding sharp turns. 3. Driving on slopes: Before ascending, slightly increase speed to gain momentum. Do not accelerate on the slope; maintain a steady speed until reaching the top. Before descending, reduce speed to the minimum possible and descend at a steady pace without braking. Never shift to neutral. 4. Snow chain usage: When snow accumulation exceeds 10 cm, snow chains must be installed on the drive wheels. For snow less than 10 cm deep, avoid using chains as they can damage tires and create significant vibration and noise.
