CRIME PREVENTION TIP

 Winter Safety Tips         
 


  • During really cold weather let your vehicle warm up for min of 5 minutes and pump your breaks several times to get the brake fluid flowing through the lines.
  • Do not leave your vehicle running unattended unless you have command start.
  • Make sure snow and ice is cleared off all your windows, head and tail lights.
  • If road conditions are poor (lot's of snow and ice) driving the posted speed limit could be to fast for those conditions…..Slow down.
  • Having four wheel drive does not mean you can stop any faster than a vehicle without it…..leave a greater distance between you and the vehicle in front of you when icy or slick roads are present.
  • When travelling out of city limits make sure to stock up, good to have shovel, blanket, booster cables, flash light and bottle of water.  Make sure your tires have enough/equal pressure as you can loose as much as 2 lbs of pressure during cold weather.  Also make sure your fluids are all topped up.
