What is the worst time for this? Wet ice. Very cold
snow or ice can be slick and hard to drive on.
But wet ice can be even more trouble because it
may offer the least traction of all. You can get
wet ice when it is about freezing, 32°F (0°C), and
freezing rain begins to fall. Try to avoid driving
on wet ice until salt and sand crews can get there.
Whatever the condition — smooth ice, packed,
blowing, or loose snow — drive with caution.
If you have a traction system, it will improve your
ability to accelerate when driving on a slippery
road. Even though your vehicle has a traction
system, you will want to slow down and adjust
your driving to the road conditions. Under certain
conditions, you may want to turn the traction
system off, such as when driving through deep
snow and loose gravel, to help maintain vehicle
motion at lower speeds. See
Traction Control
System (TCS) on page 262 , Enhanced Traction
System (ETS) on page 263 , or StabiliTrak
®
System
on page 265 .
Unless you have the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS), you will want to brake very gently, too. If
you do have ABS, see
Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS) on page 259 . ABS improves your vehicle’s
stability when you make a hard stop on a
slippery road. Whether you have ABS or not, you
will want to begin stopping sooner than you
would on dry pavement. Without ABS, if you feel
your vehicle begin to slide, let up on the brakes
a little. Push the brake pedal down steadily to get
the most traction you can.
