How to prepare your car for snowy roads?

Properly preparing your car for winter and snowy road conditions is important for both safety and driving comfort. Keep the following points in mind before setting off:

• Change to winter tires in good time and check their condition. Ensure that the tread depth of the tires meets legal requirements and that they are not excessively worn.
• Check the tire pressure, as cold weather can cause air pressure to drop.
• Carefully remove snow and ice from the entire car – including the roof, hood, lights, and windows.
• Check fluids: make sure you have enough windshield washer fluid and fuel. Use winter-grade washer fluid that can withstand freezing temperatures.
• Check the condition of the battery, heater, and lights, as electrical equipment is put under strain in freezing temperatures.
• Carry equipment such as an ice scraper, brush, blanket, flashlight, and snow chains if necessary.

A well-prepared car improves visibility, traction, and reliability in cold and slippery conditions.
