Winter Driving Requires More Preparation, Patience, and Performance

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Winter time
is upon us, and with it comes the challenges of driving in snow and icy
conditions. When driving in adverse weather conditions there are many helpful
safety tips given to help drivers get to their destinations without incidents.
Three things I always try to remember in winter weather are preparation,
patience, and performance. </span></span><span style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Preparation
includes having a vehicle that is in optimal condition. Tires should be in good
condition and properly inflated to handle the snow, water, and icy roads can be
a critical factor for safe driving. All fluids should be checked and filled to
the proper levels including that all important washer fluid. In areas where deicers
like magnesium chloride are used, you don’t want to run out of washer fluid or
your visibility could be totally smeared by the splash of the deicing materials
used on the roads. It’s a good idea to carry an extra gallon of washer fluid
along with you in the winter as well, and make sure it is winter rated so it
won’t freeze. It’s critical to keep the wiper blades in good working condition
as well. Jumper cables, a snow/ice scraper, a snow shovel and some sand or cat
litter, even some nonperishable food and a thermal blanket are some of the
basic supplies that many agencies recommend carrying in the winter.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%;">Fill that
gas tank up before the storm hits! More gas means more weight, which can give
your vehicle better traction. Also, a gas tank that is nearly empty is more susceptible
to condensation which can form in the tank and then freeze in your fuel lines</span><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 16pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">, </span><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">possibly
causing your engine to be difficult or even unable to start. A full tank is a
happy tank!</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"></span></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Clean your vehicle off! I shake my head in amusement sometimes when I see a car
driving down the road with a small area of their windshield cleaned off
and the rest of the car covered in ice and snow. It may look funny, but it is
very unsafe.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></span><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">When winter weather comes blowing in, the change can be
sudden and sometimes dramatic. Here in Colorado, it is not unusual for the
temperatures to drop 30 or 40 degrees in a very short period of time. Even with
these dramatic and quick changes, you can be prepared by monitoring weather
conditions using all the multimedia resources that are available today. </span></span><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Patience is required in all driving situations, but
particularly in bad weather. The challenges of safe driving become even greater
in snow and icy conditions. Not all people have experienced driving in winter
weather. But even with winter driving experience, we all must practice more
patience and increase our awareness. Traffic slows down in bad weather which
can cause others to become impatient. Since the road conditions are compromised
in winter weather, planning your drive becomes even more essential. Allowing
extra time is a key aspect in winter driving. Drivers should not expect to be
able to get to their destination in the same amount of time as they do on dry
clear roads. Time management is a factor in many accidents.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>

critical aspect of safely negotiating the roadways that are covered with snow
and ice. We need to handle our vehicles more gently-easy on the brakes and
accelerator, smooth easy turns and lane changes, and much slower speeds than
under normal conditions. More following distances will give you a safe space
cushion from other vehicles, and also help cut down on the amount of road spray
that splashes up on your windshield. Allowing extra time for traveling, keeping
your focus, and helping others by being courteous and safe, can make a
potentially dangerous and miserable ride much easier to handle for yourself and
everyone around you.</span></span><span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ansi-language: EN;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Driving in bad weather presents many challenges, but being
prepared, patient, and performing at a higher level, we can increase our level
of safety. Yes, the weather outside can be frightful-but we can still safely
get home to where the fire is so delightful! Safe travels everyone! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

from the military and wouldn't be receiving my retirement pay for two 
years. I always wanted to drive a big truck. I couldn't find a job for 
more than $12.00 an hour, so why not drive. My wife was not happy about 
me being gone, but I promised that I would try hard to get a local job 
as soon as possible. As you all know, with out experience, it is hard to
 get a local position. I started with Schneider trucking, but at the 
same time kept applying for something at home. If you want something and
 try hard enough, it will come around. After four months, I was hired on
 to a local job. I only have to be away from home four to five days and 
then home two to three days each week. The driving career field has 
worked out very good for me.        Greg U.</span><br />

 am now 58 years old And I am driving cross Country for us x-press.     I
 was on disability for Years due to having both Hips and both knees 
replaced, also had spurs removed From my shoulders.     I wanted to 
travel but Being on disability does not Give you a lot of money For that.   
  I did  volunteer work for The American Red Cross for A few years and 
loved it,I even went to a few disasters To help out.     But that did not
 help pay The bills. One day I was Reading a news paper and Saw an add on 
getting Your cdl for free because Stimulus money would Pay for it.   I went 
to <a href="http://www.cdlcollege.com/" target="_blank">CDL College</a> and after the training I ended up going to cr England, I am now A driver  For US Express.I pick up all my loads 
in Golden, CO and deliver all over The west to mid west, I am Only drop and 
hook and That is all right by me.     Don't let your medical History stop 
you, if you have High blood pressure and If it is control with meds thats
 ok with most company's They are worried by heart Problems and diabetic 
problems     They want you to be able To get in back of trailers to Secure
 the loads (I used to carry A step ladder with me but Now I can do it 
without one)     You do not need to know Anything about engines but You 
do need to know How to check the fluids and Other things twice a day But 
<a href="http://www.cdlcollege.com/" target="_blank">CDL College</a> will teach You.     I love my job I have Seen more of this 
country In the last three years then I did in the first fifty five 
years And I am loving it. </span><br />
