Winter driving tips Thousands of Ontario motorists will be travelling greater distances during the Christmas-New Year's period, as they visit family and friends. To insure a safe trip, the Ontario Provincial Police is recommending motorists carry several important items with © them. To prevent a rear-wheel- drive car from becoming stuck in the snow, a bag of sand could be placed in the trunk to improve traction. To help free a stuck vehicle, sand, rock-salt, kitty litter or ashes, from a con- tainer in the trunk, could be sprinkled in the front of the drive wheels to allow the tires to grip the surface. A piece of carpet or a car floor mat could also be used to keep the tires from spinning in the snow or on ice. Other cold weather travel aids can be found around the home. They include a blanket, an old jacket, gloves, matches and an empty coffee can.
