The roads will progressively get worse as the sleet and ice factor in the snow.
The best solution is to stay off the roads, but if you must drive, take it slow.
The Banks County Sheriff’s Office released tips for driving on ice and snow.
- Clean off your vehicle before driving. Flying snow from cars causes accidents
- Keep it slow, and don’t use cruise control. Roads can be slick even if they just look wet.
- Leave extra distance between vehicles. Stay especially far from snow plows.
Every year death and injuries occur because of vehicle crashes due to winter weather. Take it slow and stay safe.
