Snow or Icy Conditions: You need to keep sufficient distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. Apply the brakes gently. Speeding, rapid acceleration, sudden brake applications, and sharp turns are potentially very hazardous practices.
Sudden brake applications on snowy or icy roads may cause the vehicle to skid. To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to install tire chains on your tires. Always carry emergency equipment.
Some of the items you may want to carry include tire chains, tow straps or chains, a flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc. Summer tires (if equipped) Summer tires are used to maximize the driving performance on dry roads. If the temperature is below 7°C or you are driving on snowy or icy roads, the summer tires lose their brake performance and traction as the tire grip weakens significantly. If the temperature is below 7°C or you are driving on snowy or icy roads, mount snow tires or all-season tires of the same size with your vehicle’s standard tire for safe driving. Both snow and all-season tires have M+S markings. When using the M+S tires, use tires with the same tread produced by the same manufacturer for safe driving. When driving with the M+S tires with the lower maximum allowable speed than that of the vehicle’s standard summer tire, be careful not to exceed the speed allowed for the M+S tires.
