If having to travel, drivers are reminded to do drive to save lives (#drivetosavelives):
* Clear off all snow from your vehicle – windows, roof, trunk and lights
* Add extra time to reach travel destination…be prepared for delays
* Slow speed for road conditions
* Increase driving distances between vehicles for increased stopping distance
* Buckle up and don’t drive distracted
* MOVE OVER for all stopped emergency vehicles, highway vehicles and two trucks.
