  • Whether it is a short trip or not, make sure your wipers work well for a safe journey.
  • Make sure to increase the safety distance between you and the vehicle ahead.
  • Drive slowly so you can always keep control of your car and avoid worrying about having to stop suddenly behind other vehicles.
  • Make sure to check your tires for a safe journey.
  • Always follow traffic signs and do not instantly press on the accelerator when the traffic light turns green to avoid losing control on the slippery roads.
