Driving in Snow???

God forbid you start to skid, look AND steer in the direction you want to go. if you dont have ABS pump the brakes.

if its snowing bad, pull over and get a room. if youre not used to it its too dangerous to take a risk

even if you are used to it, its sometimes too dangerous to take the risk.

I think RainEx has ice-melting washer fluid... good investment.

If you hear reports of "black ice" in the area, stay off the roads... its nasty sh!t

A small shovel, some candles, matches, and an old metal coffee can wouldn't hurt. That way you can always get some water from the snow and a little heat with the candles too. This is in addition to what has already been brought up. And yes the windshield wipers are a big thing to check before you go north. Most importantly, slow and steady wins the race. But don't race.
