❄️ Holiday Travel Tips to Stay Safe on Winter Roads

The holiday season brings busy roads, winter weather, and shorter daylight hours, all of which can increase driving risks. Taking a few extra precautions can help keep you, your passengers, and others safe while traveling this winter.

Before heading out, make sure your vehicle is winter-ready, allow extra travel time, and adjust driving habits to road conditions. Slowing down, avoiding distractions, wearing seat belts, and planning ahead to avoid impaired driving can all help prevent crashes. In rural areas, where many Minnesota crashes occur, caution is especially important during the winter months.
