(USGovernment-News.Com, February 18, 2015 ) Lexington, KY -- In the past few days, the police team of Lexington, KY has dealt with more than 20 wrecks, five of which involved injuries. The snow in this area has covered roads and has caused many accidents.
The fast-falling snow has not to let up, which also caused many businesses to shut down completely throughout these days. Road crews are doing their best by working around the clock to clear the roads. So far, they have helped at least 400 drivers get out of the snow.
As we all know, snow storms can be very, very dangerous. Apart from being slippery, a car can get easily stuck in the cold snow and ice, unable to get out. Even when accustomed to this weather, drivers may slide into ditches, have to abandoned their vehicles on highways, or become trapped in traffic jams for hours on end.
There are a few things that drivers can do before getting on the roads in preparation of dealing with inclement weather. It starts with a simple overall checkup. Checking tires for a good tread, checking antifreeze levels, battery power, the defroster and rear window defogger can save you a lot of trouble on the road.
In addition, be cautious and drive slowly. Driving too fast is the biggest snow driving error.
