Black Trousers: Some Things Never Go out of Fashion

While there is always a small risk of an accident on the road, conditions in winter – with snow, sleet and rain making conditions slippery and hampering visibility – mean drivers should take extra precautions with their journeys. Having a car in good working order is always necessary but it is more prevalent in the winter. Make sure your battery is powering up correctly, check the ignition works and ensure all your lights are working. To aid visibility, always clear your windows of any ice or snow and take an ice scraper and de-icer in the car too. In addition, winter wipers are available – with special rubber coverings that stop ice collecting on the blade – will help maintain visibility during the drive. Without all of these, you could get stuck or lost in the middle of nowhere.

Keeping spare clothes, a blanket and gloves in the car will help to keep you warm and packing a shovel, a torch and warning triangles can all help you if you do get trapped by the snow. Having a working battery will be hugely beneficial as you try to keep warm in freezing conditions, but beware that it won’t last forever.
