Winter Special: Driving tips in winter

First and foremost, if the weather is treacherous outside then do not drive. If you really need to drive in harsh winter conditions then we have a few tips and advice for you:
·         Drive slowly; if your car skids, you have a higher chance of being able to regain control should your car skid on ice.
·         Keep a good distance from other vehicles; at least three cars apart.
·         Brake gently to avoid skidding.
·         Turn on your headlights to enhance not only your vision, but other drivers will be able to see you        better too.
·         Use lower gears to keep traction on the roads, especially when going up hills.
·         Don’t use cruise control, you want to have as much control as possible over your vehicle when driving in harsh winter conditions.
