Driving in Mud, Sand, Snow or Ice

When you drive in mud, snow or sand, your wheels

will not get good traction. You can not accelerate

as quickly, turning is more difficult, and you will need

longer braking distances.

It is best to use a low gear when you are in mud — the

deeper the mud, the lower the gear. In really deep

mud, the idea is to keep your vehicle moving so you

do not get stuck.

When you drive on sand, you will sense a change in

wheel traction. But it will depend upon how loosely

packed the sand is. On loosely packed sand (as on

beaches or sand dunes) your tires will tend to sink into

the sand. This has an effect on steering, accelerating

and braking. Drive at a reduced speed and avoid sharp

turns or abrupt maneuvers.

Hard packed snow and ice offer the worst tire traction.

On these surfaces, it is very easy to lose control.

On wet ice, for example, the traction is so poor that you

will have difficulty accelerating. And if you do get

moving, poor steering and difficult braking can cause

you to slide out of control.

{CAUTION:

Driving on frozen lakes, ponds or rivers can

be dangerous. Underwater springs, currents

under the ice, or sudden thaws can weaken

the ice. Your vehicle could fall through the ice

and you and your passengers could drown.

Drive your vehicle on safe surfaces only.
