Wally Wise Guy's Wise Words of the Week: Get Your Vehicle Winter Ready



Before driving this winter check that the brakes, battery, hoses and belts are in good condition. Regularly check your vehicle to make sure that:

  • Fluid levels are full.
  • Wiper blades don't streak. Install winter wiper blades.
  • Heater and defroster are working properly.
  • Radio is working, so you can receive weather updates, road conditions and traffic reports.
  • All lights are working.
  • Tires are properly inflated and have sufficient tread. Consider installing snow tires or carry a set of tire chains.
