It can be stressful to drive in snowy conditions, especially if you are not use to them. Tony Brown Chevrolet is here to help and give you tips to help ease the anxiety.

  1. DO NOT stomp on the brakes if you slide.

Locking up your breaks when slide could make it worse. The best thing to do is to take your foot off the gas and try to control the steering wheel without over correcting.

  1. Drive at an appropriate speed.

Don’t be afraid to drive a little slower on your morning commute especially on roads that may not have salt or rocks down.

  1. Accelerate and Decelerate slowly.

Apply gas slowly to regain traction and avoid skids, do not try to move in a hurry. Also take your time when coming to a stop. It will take more time to slow when the roads are icy.

  1. Know your brakes

It may be time to get your breaks checked or have no ones installed. Consult with us and we can help!
