Leonid Babashov, a member of the State Duma Committee on Transport and Transport Infrastructure Development, told socialbites.ca that before the winter season he updated the engine oil of his car and diagnosed the brake system. According to him, it takes some time for the driver to adapt to new weather conditions.
“I have been driving for almost 40 years and consider myself a passionate car enthusiast. It is important to understand that any transport, be it a truck or a passenger car, is an object of increased danger, so its maintenance and preparation for weather conditions is a very important point! Since I live in Crimea, where it is quite warm, I “change” my car to winter tires in November-December. Also, before winter, I always change the engine oil and send the vehicle for diagnosis of the chassis and brake systems. What really matters in winter use is not even how technically prepared your vehicle is, although this is also very important. It is important to understand that in winter, even at 3°C, ice can form on the roads and the car can skid! In such cases, you need to act very carefully and carefully. “We must not forget that every driver gradually adapts to changing weather conditions, which takes a certain amount of time,” he said.
