Head of the emergency training school Viktor Martynenko on Radio 1 listed Rules to follow for accident-free driving in winter. First of all, he says it’s important to always keep your wipers and mirrors clean so that any resulting ice doesn’t obstruct your vision. In addition, the expert advised not to make sudden movements on the road.
“You have to constantly look in the rearview mirrors. Also, if you find that the weather is unfavorable, you do not need to change lanes frequently. Determine the route in advance because these changes may not work in your favor,” said Martynenko.
He also recommended equipping the car in case of emergency, as well as replacing the tires with winter tires. He said the car should have a spare bottle of antifreeze fluid, a brush and a scraper. The expert also concluded that it is important to check whether all systems in the vehicle are working properly before the cold season.
