Just a friend reminder guys, the winter months are upon us, so it’s time to drive safe! Especially for the guys who haven’t winterized their cars!

Some winter safety tips…

keep your distance! you’ll never know when you may need to make emergency stops, and with in winter conditions, you’ll never know if there’s any black ice out there!

and a general rule of thumb of driving according to weather conditions…it’s better to arrive late than to not arrive at all!

If you have any other winter safety tips you wanna share, post’em up!

when changing lanes with heavy snow paths never give gas, let the car get into the next lane than gas it.

ya, and change those summer tires

running semi bald stretched tires = non moving 240sx

i couldn’t even move at all on the first snowfall. and there was like 1cm on the ground if not, less.

i just got winters, and i say ppl start saving up and taking their summers off!

be careful guys, and don’t overestimate winter!

yes thats true, the slightest rain fall makes me slide so much and im not even taking off hard. and be careful when turning corners too…yesterday i was waiting to make a left turn on the most dangerous intersection in toronto (dufferin and allen road) and the on-coming lanes were turning then a FAGGOT in a red s13 was the last one to make the turn on a RED LIGHT on the PHONE and since he had to speed up to catch the red i saw him swerve a bit and i told myself what a fu\*kin idiot i wanted to chase him and run him off the road

Remember to do your braking BEFORE turns, not in them. :R

Can’t break the laws of physics, and snow magnifies everything…momentum is momentum and speed is speed.

And as stated above by our fellow members, leave room.

Oh, and watch out for everyone else…drive easy. 😉

I think the people that drive SUV’s are the biggest retards ever… they drive like twice the speed just cuz they have big cars and AWD and that crap… but most of them are still on all-season tires… \>=(

I also hate those extremely slow drivers who are scared shitless and drive like half the speed limit just to be “safe”. they’re even on snow tires too! wtf…

oops… this is off topic isn’t it? 😛
