Preparation key for safe winter travel
Are you ready for winter roads?
Icy conditions and snow will soon be a reality for many drivers. It may not be enjoyable, but there are steps you can take to avoid trouble on the roads this winter season.
Lyle Karasiuk, the Director of Affairs with Parkland Ambulance, encouraged people to carry winter survival kits and to make sure their vehicle is ready for the roads by installing winter tires.
“They make a world of difference,” Karasiuk said. “One, to improve your steering and two, to improve your braking. Those are the key factors to winter driving.”
