Travel – Eat – Sleep

Winter driving needs some extra attention, special skills, and lots of patience. When ice or snow is covering the ground, the first thing to remember when going somewhere is to have plenty of emergency items with you. Blankets, coat, flashlight, flashers and standard items such as a spare tire and jack are items needed in case of car trouble. Bottled water and snack items are also a good idea to have in the trunk or glove box in case of long waiting hours for help.
When it comes to driving on ice, the rule of thumb is the slower, the better. Be in no hurry.
