Tip! Use your defensive driving skills. Drive as if everyone else is crazy.
Winter driving can be hazardous and stressful. Wind, snow, ice and blizzard conditions increase the normal dangers of driving. There is a lot you can do before the winter driving season and during a storm to protect yourself and your family.
Before winter arrives, have your car inspected to be sure it is ready for the road conditions. You can do this yourself or take it to a qualified mechanic. Check the battery, wipers and fluid, thermostat, brakes, ignition system, antifreeze, exhaust system, lights, oil level, heater and defrosters. Make sure everything is in good working order to keep you safe throughout the cold weather.

Tip! Never allow your child’s crying to affect your driving or your attention to the road. At the same time never allow your child’s crying to build your stress to the point that you yell at the child in a desperate (and futile) attempt to make him be quiet.
There is a Department of Motor Vehicles (the DMV) in most states. This Department is usually responsible for issuing driving licences, maintaining up-to-date driving records including speeding tickets / violation details, DUI records and vehicle registration and vehicle history details. Many DMV web sites now allow you to renew vehicle registration, renew driver’s license, create and purchase license plates, replace driver’s license, purchase an identification card and offer many other services.

Tip! Most Driving Schools will usually book lessons at least a week ahead, so don’t expect to ring up and get a lesson that day or even the next. Occasionally if you are lucky, and the School has a vacant slot they will take you but it’s the exception rather than the rule.
During the winter, driving can be risky and difficult at times. Before you can even think straight, you are slamming on the brakes and plowing into a head-on collision. Unfortunately this scenario plays out several times during the winter travel season. As a seasoned driver you may think you can handle the winter roads, but one factor that you may be overlooking is the inexperienced, unaware drivers.

Tip! Don’t just ring up a Driving School and with your first sentence ask what prices are your lessons. You are perfectly entitled to query prices, which will be very much the same from all established Schools.
The most basic element of driving safety at any time of year is being in complete control of your vehicle. This becomes even more critical in the winter months when rain, snow, slush, and ice can cover the surface of the highway you travel on. Losing control of your vehicle means not being able to stop or move your car in a safe manner.
