Question 5201
With snow on the roadway...
- you should drive as close as possible to the vehicle ahead to take advantage of its tracks.
- tire chains must be used, and they must always be installed on the front wheels.
- driving must be smooth, without abrupt steering movements or sudden changes.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: driving must be smooth, without abrupt steering movements or sudden changes.
On snow, one sudden movement is enough to cause a skid. Accelerate, brake, and steer gently, without sudden changes. Following too closely leaves you no room to brake, because you need much more distance on snow. Chains go on at least the drive wheels, which are not always the front wheels.
