1. KEEP AN EMERGENCY KIT IN YOUR CAR

Pack a winter emergency kit including a blanket, jumper cables, a snow brush, sand or kitty litter for traction, a flashlight, and snacks. You hope you never need it — but you’ll be glad it’s there.

2. CHECK YOUR BATTERY BEFORE WINTER HITS

Cold weather is brutal on car batteries. Get yours tested before the temperature drops. A battery that barely gets you through summer won’t make it through a Canadian winter.

3. USE WINTER TIRES

All-season tires aren’t enough in serious winter conditions. Winter tires provide dramatically better grip on snow and ice, reducing your stopping distance significantly.

4. KNOW WHEN TO CALL A TOW

If your vehicle is stuck, spinning out, or won’t start in the cold — don’t risk making it worse. Call ASAP Towing Inc. We’ll get to you fast and safely recover your vehicle.
