Question 4220

Where should you drive your vehicle if there are curves and heavy snow on the roadway?

  1. Always in the center of the roadway.
  2. In a spot free of marks, where there are no other tire tracks.
  3. Driving inside the tire tracks left by other vehicles.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Driving inside the tire tracks left by other vehicles.

In deep snow, especially on curves, drive within the tire tracks. The car moves with less resistance, the tracks guide it, and if the snow has melted, the tires touch the asphalt. First, check that the bottom of the tracks is not icy and that they are not so deep that the snow rubs against the underbody.
