A Blast of Winter!
Thursday, November 22nd, 2007It’s the most wonderful time of the year! If you’re a tow truck driver, that is!
You’d think we’d be used to it by now. I mean, we do get snow on the roads every winter afterall. We do think of ourselves as fairly intelligent don’t we? Why can’t we remember how to drive with snow on the ground every year when we get our first blast of winter?
Over 300 snow related accidents in the GTA and Highway 400 closed down in both directions on Thursday. Why? Because people fortget how to drive with snow on the road and it’s the same thing every year when we get our first taste of winter driving. You’d think we’d have learned by now.
Snow tires, snow brushes, windshield washer fluid, gloves and most importantly - SLOW DOWN and give yourself some extra time to get there.
Can you think of anything else people need to be reminded of when it comes to winter driving?
Your comments are appreciated and I’ll be sure to pass them along.
Take care, take it easy and take your time.
