Rochester's winter landscape is mesmerizing, but navigating those snow-covered roads can be intimidating. Before you embark on your next snowy adventure, gear up with these expert tips and hit the road with confidence:

1. Winterize Your Ride:

Treat your car like a winter warrior. Swap your regular tires for winter tires, which provide superior traction in snow and ice. Get your battery checked – cold weather can drain it quickly. Top off your antifreeze and wiper fluid, and ensure your lights are working flawlessly. Bob Johnson Auto Group offers comprehensive winter car services to ensure your vehicle is ready to handle the elements.

2. Master the Art of Slow and Steady:

Forget about lead-footed driving in the snow. Take it slow and steady, accelerating and braking gently to avoid skidding. Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles, and be extra cautious on bridges and curves, where ice tends to linger.

3. Know Your Brakes:

Anti-lock brakes (ABS) can be your winter ally. Don't pump the brakes – apply firm, constant pressure to allow the ABS to do its job. If you don't have ABS, practice controlled braking in an empty parking lot to get a feel for the difference.

4. Visibility Matters:

Clear your windshield thoroughly before hitting the road. Use a snow scraper and de-icing spray to ensure maximum visibility. Keep your headlights on for improved visibility in snowy conditions.

5. Be Prepared for the Unexpected:

Pack an emergency kit for your car, including a blanket, jumper cables, a flashlight, non-perishable food, and water. Dress warmly in layers so you can stay comfortable if you get stuck.

Bonus Tip: Download a GPS app with live traffic updates to stay informed about road closures and delays.
