Expressway Mitsubishi Wants You Driving Safe This Winter!

While many consider the most wonderful time of the year, some could argue that it is also one of the most dangerous times of the year.  Winter has officially arrived, and there is no doubt that the weather outside is frightful. The freezing temperatures and the constant snowfall mean hazardous road conditions for you and your loved ones. No matter how many winters you have seen and no matter the number of times you have driven through a snowstorm, each snow storm is different and presents a new set of dangers and challenges.

Expressway Mitsubishi wants to make sure you are driving as safely as possible at all times, but especially during these upcoming winter months. Take a look at our expert tips to keep you and those around you on the road as safe as possible!

Your Vehicle Needs to Be Prepared

In order to safely drive in winter weather,  your vehicle must be in exceptional shape. If you haven’t already, make sure components such as your ignition system, fuel system, brakes, wiper blades, battery, and lights are in proper working order.

Have the Proper Supplies

Your car must be armed with basic supplies to keep you driving safely this winter. This includes a snow shovel, a scraper, a spare blanket or two, booster cables, flares or reflectors, and spare windshield washer fluid.

Before You Go

We know it’s cold out there and you just want to get in your car and drive, but you must clear snow and ice from ALL windows and lights on your vehicle. This also includes your car’s hood and roof.

Pay Attention to Your Gas Supply

Keeping your tank as full as possible will minimize condensation, providing the maximum advantage in case of trouble.
