With the possibility of
winter weather coming to the area York County Sheriff Bruce Bryant would like
to remind drivers of a few safety precautions when driving in inclement
weather:
If possible stay home. Avoid travel unless absolutely necessary.
Always wear your seatbelt.
Allow more travel time; expect delays.
Decrease speed and increase distance between vehicles – it takes
longer to stop on snow covered or icy roads.
Use your vehicles headlights at all times – So other drivers can
see you better.
Clear all windows of snow and ice before leaving home or work.
Use caution on bridges and overpasses as most freeze before
roadways.
Avoid using cruise control – cruise can cause the vehicle's wheels
to continue turning on a slippery surface when speed needs to be
decreased.
Ensure your vehicle has a full tank of gas in the event you are
stranded for an extended period of time.
Charge your cell phone prior to leaving
Have a blanket in your car.
Let someone know when you leave home and estimated time of arrival
to your destination.
If unfortunately you are involved in an accidentbe patient – weather also limits
our capabilities and increases our response time; also, keep in mind that
we will be experiencing a high volume of requests for service.
Move your vehicle out of the roadway if you are involved in a
minor, non-injury traffic collision; especially if you are in a dangerous
area such as a curve, a blind hill or a busy highway.
