At Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions, located in Lewisville, Texas, winter is starting to show itself. While temperatures in Texas don’t usually drop below freezing, it’s important to stay weather aware and take the necessary precautions to protect yourself and your vehicle. If, or when, ice or snow find their way into our area, make a plan and follow precautions to reduce the risk of denting your vehicle.
Know Your Route
If you are leaving to go somewhere in your vehicle, you should already have a plan. Be sure to plan your route before leaving your current location. When the weather is freezing, usually at night, ice can build up. Deciding on a plan for your route before you get in your vehicle will allow you to access the roads and find out which ones are clear and which ones could have ice. This will prevent you from slipping on the ice roads and causing damage.
Fog Lights
When fog inevitably settles in be sure to turn on your vehicle’s fog, or low, lights. This may seem like common sense, however if you do not turn them on other drivers will not be able to see you, or you may not be able to see other drivers. This could cause an unfortunate collision.
Snow Removal
When you go to leave you location, if you have snow on your vehicle it is best to push off any excess. Snow will gather and accumulate. Large pieces of ice can be sharp and could severely damage your vehicle. Pushing off any excess will help to lower the chance of damage.
Tire Tread
Even in the warm months you should be checking your tire tread, however it is extremely important in the winter months. Be sure to check them BEFORE the winter weather hits. In the event of icy roads, bad treads on tires lessen the traction your vehicle has on the road and will increase your chances of slipping and crashing into barriers
