Winter Weather Car Tips | Cash for Cars Atlanta


Once Fall passes us by and Winter quickly sets in, we often run into all types of unexpected car trouble. Extreme cold, icy roads and snow can cause all sorts of issues for your car and your driving.  Having a great offense is the best plan. Be prepared and have the right things in your vehicle with you at all times. This includes matches, blankets, water, sand, rock salt, a shovel, ice scraper and WD-40.  Here are a few tips that can help you out in some of the sticky situations that winter weather can cause:
  • If you get stuck in snow or ice you want to have sand and/or rock salt on hand. You can use this to melt the ice underneath your tires or get traction if they are stuck on snow.
  • In the case of a frozen lock, heat your key up in hot water and dry it thoroughly. Also use a blow dryer, if you have a long enough extension cord, to heat the lock and melt the ice. You can help prevent your locks from freezing by oiling them before bed.
  • Drive appropriately for the conditions and leave your house early for work. This is the most important and most common sense tip.  If you are running late, you will be tempted to speed, even in icy conditions or if there is poor visibility.  Don’t let other drivers or time constraints pressure you into going faster than conditions permit.
