Winter storms, bad weather and sloppy road conditions lead to more than 2,000 road deaths every year.

Leave early. If you’re running late, that’s going to lead to anxiety which will cloud your judgment, possibly leading to risky driving behaviors.

Slow down. Accelerate, turn and brake as gradually and smoothly as you can. This will help you maintain control in rough conditions. Don’t tailgate. Normal following distances of three to four seconds on dry pavement should be extended to a minimum of five to six seconds when driving on slippery surfaces.Turn against the skid. If your car begins to skid, continue to steer in the direction you want the car to go.Inspect your tires. Make sure tires have adequate tread depth —at least 4/32″ — as worn tires can affect a driver’s ability to stop in slick conditions.
