Winter Driving Tips

During Winter, driving conditions can present problems for a driver.  Ice or snow not only reduce a driver’s visibility, but they change the way tires grip the road.   Therefore, the odds of getting in an accident are increased greatly.   However, never fear.  There are tips to help any driver navigate treacherous winter conditions.    They are:

1) Check your windshield wipers and defrosters

Very few things cause more accidents than a lack of visibility for a driver.  And for any Houston driver, clean auto glass plays an essential role in creating needed visibility. That’s where properly functioning windshield wipers and defrosters come in handy.   Without them, driving becomes very dangerous.

2) Fill the washer reservoir

Without washer fluid, your windshield wipers can’t clean your windshield properly, affecting a driver’s visibility.  And anything that negatively affects a driver’s visibility is a bad thing.

3) Inspect your tires

Before winter comes, it’s a good idea to invest in winter tires, and if you already have winter tires on your vehicle, inspect them to ensure they are in good condition.  You never know when you will be driving in the elements, and good winter tires are a must for driving in heavy snow.
