When roads turn icy, allow 3-10 times more stopping distance. If brakes lock up, ease off to regain steering control. When slowing, pump the brakes with steady, rapid pulses rather than slamming them. This prevents wheel lockup allowing you to Still steer. Downshift cautiously to use engine braking before brakes. Take corners extremely slowly, avoiding abrupt acceleration or braking which can cause skidding. If wheels start to slide, look and steer where you want the truck to go. Above all, reduce speed and increase following distance. Patience and planning prevents accidents. We’ll get through winter safely by working together and adapting to conditions.
