Tips for Drivers On the Road in Icy Conditions

Winter has arrived, and with it comes driving conditions that can leave motorists gripping their steering wheels and hoping they can get from one point to another without incurring a fender-bender, or worse. Inside Edition has tips to help you navigate the roads in the cold. Mike Stillwagon, an instructor at the Skip Barber Driving School in Connecticut, noted most accidents happen while people are driving downhill. “The safest way to drive is very cautious and very slow,” he said. #InsideEdition

How to stay in control while driving down a hill ? Me an European: Just put it in a lower gear.

[@krepler]

I don't trust the video when you didn't bring an ice expert.

[@sandrar.1744]

😅😅😅👍

[@jimb.7523]

*icy road expert Ice expert is someone entirely different.

[@THEFIRE360]

Yet drivers throughout the midwest refuse to take this advice

How to drive on icy roads don't drive just stay indoors 😂

[@annetteslife]

I was about to say that.

[@dwnkaomwn3953]

Unfortunately, some folks like myself don't have that option. I got to get to work.

[@annetteslife]

@@dwnkaomwn3953 same here but luckily i live close to work that i just walk. But i have to watch out for those crazed idiots who intentionally do 380s on icy roads

[@SUGAR_XYLER]

If you have to go to work in snow and ice *I'd find a better job*

[@davidwilliams2279]

I know. It's not like you never know in advance. Get out and get yourself some milk, bread, coldcuts and cornflakes and stay home. If you lose a job for that then you really need a different job.

[@WhiteOutNinja]

Ah yes, as someone living near the border of Mexico I need to watch this.

[@expiredramennoodles8885]

Can’t wait to use these tips for south Texas

[@missie2011]

The Jeep is kinda built for the snow and crazy terrain. They should do a video like this on regular cars sedans or cars that don’t have all wheel or four-wheel-drive

[@shortyklee]

This is for people who have never seen snow

[@Veroxzes]

This is compulsary training in Sweden. You can’t get a driver’s license if you haven’t done the compulsary ”halkbanan” as it’s called. Skid/drift track. Fun to drift around in a RWD Mercedes!

[@offroader9488]

THANKS Inside Edition .

[@thatpersonwithamlpiconwhos2861]

My car crashed into a snowbank about a week ago. I went into a right turn, and it slid into a snowbank. It was weird, it was like someone disconnected my steering wheel and break. The car did not respond to anything I told it to do.

[@xXSTOLENxXxCULTXx]

Yeah I'd like to see him do this in a 99 civic with no traction control

[@caelyn3418]

be careful out there!!

[@meaningfulsongspoetry6269]

We don't have snow season but thanks for info

[@Legend-lc9bv]

Tips for car enthusiast : *hand brake up then down and clutch kick and drift!!*

[@tsaurus5051]

Just flooring at all times in the snow/ice is really fun I love in Michigan and Washington DC and we get lots of ice and some snow really fun stuff

[@Legend-lc9bv]

@@tsaurus5051 in the lambo?

[@crazybingus3040]

For the safety of others & myself I stay off the roads or have someone I know is experienced driving in conditions like that take me. It’s inconvenient but no one gets hurt.

[@u0978]

I would just sleep and stay home🤣🤣🤣

[@mr.savagebanana3284]

Forget big one don't drive with summer tired

[@jackblu475]

Video says to "tap" lightly on the brake pedal.... You don't want to pump or tap tap tap, just one continuous light application.

[@melikeking9013]

Dam why you uploading at 6 in the morning

[@justenzo6342]

It's not for everyone around the world

[@kevincuellar3755]

[@bigbonestone]

To bad I haven’t had snow in 6 years

[@mar1z453]

They forget to say and make sure you driving keep Cherokee

[@markcharlesogunjiofor2610]

You have to consider that this suv is made for different terrains

[@hanger2633]

Giltsum it’s a made for stuff like off roading and things like that and snow but the Durango video did a little better

[@markcharlesogunjiofor2610]

@@hanger2633 it would be helpful if it was a daily driver (like a Toyota Camry) (Edit) The Video

[@hanger2633]

Giltsum you sure about a Camry?

[@anthonymolina7416]

Cheynne Cool that’s a Jeep

[@hanger2633]

Tf is this if you feel a slide don’t hit the brake how am I supposed to slow down if I don’t wanna crash into a car?

[@tsaurus5051]

Your just going to slide into the car if you put on the brake and sometimes it will be faster slide if you put on the brake

[@lucascarneiro2101]

Who the hell would brake

Step 1: Turn on eurobeat

[@jma2b2]

Why is it always news casts that have the worst videos to help with this. We wanna look at the road and steering wheel in front of them, not their reactions, while the expert is coming out of the slide

[@dollygolly3404]

Put it in Neutral going down hill

[@jessitrd4718]

I live in Texas 🤣🤣

[@jurnee-y]

Can happen in Texas too. I recently moved here and I always see signs saying bridge/road may Ice during cold weather and this same thing happened to me last week when It was raining and I driving on the highway and started to loose control. First time I’ve experienced that and it was scary

We need way more salt trucks everywhere , this ice is not a game

[@tsaurus5051]

I hope you have a couple million dollars lol salt is not free

[@User_10199]

T Saurus the government does

[@BlueRidgePhantom]

1. Don't drive faster than you can handle. 2. Turn traction control off, leave stability control if you don't trust yourself. 3. Steer. 4. Don't slam on your brakes no matter what happens. (That should give most an idea)

[@keilalopez4652]
