What is the worst time for this? “Wet ice.” Very cold

snow or ice can be slick and hard to drive on. But wet

ice can be even more trouble because it may offer

the least traction of all. You can get wet ice when it is

about freezing (32°F; 0°C) and freezing rain begins

to fall. Try to avoid driving on wet ice until salt and sand

crews can get there.

Whatever the condition — smooth ice, packed, blowing

or loose snow — drive with caution.

If you have traction assist, keep the system on. It will

improve your ability to accelerate when driving on a

slippery road. But you can turn the traction system off

if your vehicle ever gets stuck in sand, mud, ice or snow.

See If You Are Stuck: In Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow on

page 4-52. Even though your vehicle has a traction

system, you will want to slow down and adjust your

driving to the road conditions. See Traction Assist

System (TAS) on page 4-9.

If you do not have a traction system, accelerate gently.

Try not to break the fragile traction. If you accelerate

too fast, the drive wheels will spin and polish the surface

under the tires even more.

Your anti-lock brakes improve your vehicle’s stability

when you make a hard stop on a slippery road.

Even though you have an anti-lock braking system,

you will want to begin stopping sooner than you would

on dry pavement. See Braking on page 4-6.

• Allow greater following distance on any slippery road.

• Watch for slippery spots. The road might be ﬁne

until you hit a spot that is covered with ice. On an

otherwise clear road, ice patches may appear in

shaded areas where the sun can not reach: around

clumps of trees, behind buildings or under bridges.

Sometimes the surface of a curve or an overpass

may remain icy when the surrounding roads are

clear. If you see a patch of ice ahead of you, brake

before you are on it. Try not to brake while you are

actually on the ice, and avoid sudden steering

maneuvers.
