Student drivers – give yourself EXTRA TIME to ARRIVE SAFELY and ON TIME.
Take particular care on Highway 18 and the roundabouts at the intersection of 83 and 18.
Please:
Remove ice and snow from all windows, mirrors, and lights
Do not drive too fast for the conditions
Use your headlights
Don’t use cruise control as you need to maintain control of acceleration and deceleration at all times
Remember 4-wheel drive doesn’t work on ice
Most importantly, give yourself extra time to arrive safely and on time. Drive slowly, avoiding dramatic starts, stops, or turns!
