DESCRIPTION
Driving on black ice can be one of the most dangerous challenges during the winter months. This video offers essential winter driving tips to help you navigate these slippery, invisible patches of ice with confidence and safety.
Whether you're driving a passenger vehicle or a large truck, knowing how to respond to black ice can make all the difference in preventing accidents.
We begin by explaining the importance of releasing the brake when you feel your vehicle starting to lose control. This simple technique helps regain traction and may prevent skidding.
Learn that bridges and overpasses freeze first. And know that on interstates and freeways, these sections of road may catch drivers unawares.
For truck drivers and those towing trailers, we discuss how to safely pull a trailer through curves and turns, and why it’s crucial to slow down before entering a curve to maintain control.
Lastly, we introduce the "chop steering" technique, which helps you steer more effectively in slippery conditions, giving you the best chance to avoid accidents. With these practical tips, you'll be better equipped to handle black ice and other winter hazards safely.
Good luck on your road test!
