Driving in ice: what a motorist needs to know

With the onset of cold weather, it's time to think about winter driving style: be more careful, install additional details to improve driving safety. To begin with, make every effort to minimize possible accidents even with icy conditions. For example, if you have not filled in the non-freezing liquid and have not changed summer tires, you have something to do on the weekend.

Universal reception in icy conditions-lower speed by 10 km/h. and increase the distance between other cars. One of the most frequent and serious problems that arise in the winter is the loss of control over the car. And you can even bring if you go and 30 km/h, because you can drive over an obstacle, get into a hole. What to do?

Drift

We work with the steering wheel and pedals:

1. Steering wheel. Keep your hands at the top, do not roll on the steering wheel with your whole body.

2. CAT. Brake with the engine: consistently switch from high gear to lower. In ice at a low speed, it is better to move to second gear. Do not brake on drifts or sharp turns.

3. Brakes. If there is a traffic light or a pedestrian crossing ahead, it is better to slow down in advance. If this did not work out, then it’s better to brake with the presence of ABS as much as possible, in its absence-to brake with impulses.

4. Landing. Sit up straight and press against the back of the seat: this will make you feel the car better.

How to drive a car in ice

What else can you do?

Any action you didn’t plan to do with the car is considered to be an emergency. To make it right, the driver needs to have experience and an appropriate attitude. For example, for beginners it is recommended to get acquainted with videos on how to behave in extreme situations.

It is necessary to pay attention to muscle memory: for this, on a closed area, practice emergency braking and disassemble possible unforeseen situations. Still such small recommendations will help:

  • Slow down before cornering: improve driving safety.
  • As soon as you feel that you are entered, immediately take the necessary action and do not expect anything.
  • Drive towards a skid until the car is level in motion.

Try to stay away from cars whose condition or features increase the risk of accidents. For example, the Lanos often mist the windows, so the driver's visibility deteriorates, and the old VAZs are poorly managed, especially in icy conditions.

Snow chains: saving the situation

In simple terms, anti-skid chains is a removable tread that helps to get a wheel from an ordinary tire off road. Such designs allow to improve the grip properties of the wheels and provide an opportunity to better control the car during the ice.

Snow chains are of two types: with a pattern of ladder and honeycomb. The first option is easier to mount, but less effective on drifts. The second option has a smoother rotation and good handling cars. You can buy snow chains in Kiev, Odessa, Kharkov with delivery in Ukraine at 130.com.ua.

Today you can pick up snow chains for any brand of car, but you need to take into account the class of the car: passenger car, truck or SUV. The determining factor is the size of the wheels. In general, such structures greatly simplify driving on snow and ice.
