COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Things are starting to cool down here in Southern Colorado as we settle into fall. And with winter weather just around the corner, it’s important to prepare your car for winter driving.
Make sure you always have an ice scraper available for when you start your trip and beyond. We know the snow can come down quickly so making sure that you are able to see clearly can not only keep you safe but other drivers as well. Don't forget to have your tire pressure checked before the weather cools down, and also continue to check your tire pressure throughout the winter season. Investing in good, quality tires. Those who drive within city limits can invest in all-weather tires. People with a further commute or those who take rural roads might want to consider investing in winter tires.
Everyone should carry a Survival Kit in their car year-round, but in Colorado, you need to tailor that for winter driving. In Colorado, your all-season tires may not be enough. With that in mind, there are two major laws every Colorado driver needs to know for the winter.Wherever the Colorado Department of Transportation or the Colorado State Patrol puts them into effect all vehicles on the highway or interstate listed must have either snow tires, four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, or another alternative traction device.
