-Let someone know when you expect to arrive and your route and check on vulnerable neighbours.

-Slow down — it can take 10 times longer to stop in snowy or icy conditions

-If you start to skid, gently ease off the accelerator and avoid braking. If braking is necessary, pump the brakes don't slam them on.
