Tips for Winter Driving

Posted on December 8, 2020December 8, 2020

Driving during winter can be difficult for even the most skilled of motorists. That’s why it is so important to start preparing for winter’s worst before it arrives. This guide that the team at Copeland Chevrolet has assembled should offer some tips for winter driving.

Check the Health of Your Vehicle’s Battery

Frigid mornings can do a real number on your car’s battery. That’s why it is so important to check its health before the winter season gets into full swing.

Assemble an Emergency Kit

The last thing that you want to happen during winter is to find yourself stranded on the side of the road in the freezing cold. To avoid this unfortunate incident, consider assembling a winter emergency kit with items like jumper cables, blankets, a shovel, and bottled water for the well-being of you and your vehicle.

Accelerate and Decelerate Slowly

Far too often, accelerating quickly or slamming on the brakes will result in losing control on the road due to snow and ice. Take it slow to ensure that you don’t slide off course or spin out.

Avoid Stopping on Hills

Icy hills can present the greatest challenge you’ll face during the winter. If you can help it, make sure that you avoid stopping on hills during the colder month, so you don’t find yourself slipping backward into traffic.

For more helpful hints on how to prepare yourself and your vehicle for the winter season, feel free to speak to our expert team at Copeland Chevrolet.
