During this winter season, drivers are reminded to plan ahead and leave extra space between themselves and other vehicles.

Ensure that your vehicles are ‘winter ready’ by equipping them with winter rated tires with plenty of tread and having a basic winter emergency kit including warm clothing or blankets, snacks, first-aid kit and a phone charger.
