In winter, though, things are a whole lot different behind the wheel, according to the National Safety Council. And many motor- js s, lulled into confidence by a simmer free of ice and snow, may find themselves unprepared these next few weeks for the add- ed dangers of winter driving. Not you we're talking about, you say"? Well, maybe not. Maybe you are up on the finer points of win- ter driving, If so, you probably know the answers to such ques- tions as: 1. If my car starts to skid on glare ice, wha® should 1 do? (Keep your foot off the brake and steer in the direction of the skid.) 2. Is there any way to stop quickly on icy pavement? (No -- but a fast pumping of brakes will stop you the quickest and let you keep control.) 3. How fast should I drive in winter? (That depends -- remem ber it takes you 12 times as far to stop.) If you weren't surz of all the answers, you're perfectly normal, according to the Council. "Many drivers," it says, "are a little confused about what to do on winter roads "The time to learn the answers i is not when you're in a jam - | it's right now o » 'oe before winter de i -- scends in all its fury." bs . : : = $2 The Council's Committee on - : SS py ATIROIT which studies of gives Winter Driving Hazards has made on-the-spot how to go on ice and snow, these six tips to motorists 1.

Make sure your car has good tires -- preferably snow tires -- and use reinforced tire chains for more severe conditions, Even with the help of snow tires or tire chains, slower - than - normal speeds are a must on snow and ice. 3. Keep windshield and windows clear. Make sure your wiper blades, heater and defroster are working properly. While your car's warming up in the morn- ing, take a couple of minutes to clear all the windows includ- ing the rear window of snow and ice. 4, When you're out on the road 3.95 to 10.95 1.00 to 2.50 ROBES .
