​Here's How You Can Do Your Part​

More Winter Driving Tips

• Travel only when necessary during major snow events.  

• Pack an emergency kit to store in your vehicle with ice scrapers, jumper cables, blankets, a flashlight, a cell phone charger, non-perishable snacks and a first aid kit in case you get stranded on the road. 

• Winterize your vehicle. Check your car battery, tire pressure and brakes. Ensure your heater, defroster, headlights and windshield wipers are working properly. 

• When snow and/or ice are on roadways, drive slowly, no matter what type of vehicle you drive. It takes more time and distance to stop your vehicle in poor weather, so brake early and slowly. 

• Pay attention to weather advisories and allow more time for travel on routine commutes. 

• Slow down when approaching intersections, off-ramps, bridges or shaded areas. These are all places susceptible to black ice – a thin coating of hard-to-see clear ice that can form on the pavement surface. 

• Maintain a safe distance from snowplows and other heavy highway equipment, and do not pass snowplows on the shoulder. 

• Know before you go. Download the free WAZE app or visit goky.ky.g​ov to check traffic conditions before you travel. The map also offers access to select traffic cameras on interstates and parkways.
