  6. Basics Of Winter Driving  • Keep your distance. The regular rule of safe distance to car in front of three to four seconds must be extended to 8 to ten seconds. This improved margin of protection will provide the sufficient distance needed to stop your car in winter conditions.

  7. Basics Of Winter Driving  • Know your brakes. Whether you have got antilock brakes or not, the first-class way to stop is threshold braking, where you make sure that the brakes don’t lock, so just enough pressure for them not to lock.

  8. Basics Of Winter Driving  • Managing up and down hills. Try to get a little inertia going before you attack the hill and let that motion carry you there if possible, otherwise apply enough pressure on the gas pedal while making sure that you don’t loose traction. Avoid stopping if possible, as starting from a halt trying to go up is challenging and you will need to slowly get the traction and slowly accelerate from there. When going downhill try to use the gears to slow down the vehicle if you have a manual transmission.
