What should be noted when driving a motor vehicle on icy and snowy roads?

[LucyAnn]

When driving on icy and snowy roads, maintain steady throttle control and avoid sudden acceleration. Below are some driving techniques related to driving in snowy conditions: 1. Gradual deceleration and sequential light braking: While driving, never make sudden starts or emergency stops on icy and slippery roads. When starting, accelerate gently to prevent tire slippage. When braking, allow for a longer braking distance and apply the brakes smoothly and steadily. On extremely cold and icy roads, if maintaining a safe distance, try using sequential light braking techniques to prevent tire slippage. 2. Timely gear shifting: When starting the vehicle on snow or driving up an icy slope, use a low gear. Once the vehicle regains stability, shift to second or D gear depending on road conditions, then gently press the accelerator to move forward.
