FYI: There are reports of a number of vehicles (including a fire truck) either stuck in snow on I-17 or sliding off the road. We strongly recommend postponing travel. If you must go out, pack a winter-driving kit and review snow driving tips: azwx
Make sure your vehicle is in good working condition by paying special attention to the battery, ignition and exhaust systems, thermostat, defroster, heater and brakes. Take these precautions as well:
Use snow tires, chains or studded tires as recommended, required or both on snowy, icy roads. Studded tires are permitted on Arizona highways from Oct. 1 to May 1.Install new windshield wiper blades and solvent. Ensure your headlights, taillights, brake lights and turn signals work well and can be seen if visibility is low.Never drive into snowy, icy or cold conditions without a fully-charged cell phone, drinking water and winter coats, warm blankets or both.
If your vehicle becomes nonoperational, raise the front hood and activate its flashing hazard lights to signal to other drivers and emergency responders that it is disabled.If possible, do not stop in or near travel lanes. Stop in a safe area where the vehicle can be serviced or removed. Do not stay in or close to a disabled vehicle.Stay at least four car lengths behind snowplows and equipment.
