Ice in Moscow.  What should the driver do

Freezing ice is not so much dangerous as the car owner may have problems getting into the ice-encrusted car. The danger is elsewhere. Roads begin to be covered with a layer of so-called black ice, which is not always visually recognizable. How to avoid an accident in such conditions, says the AvtoVzglyad portal.

To understand what is under the wheels of your car while driving, you can gently brake or shake the steering wheel in different directions and judge the situation by the car’s reaction. If it’s slippery, slow down!

In addition, during black ice, there is an active freezing of the windshield and wiper blades, which even the ventilation and heating system cannot cope with. In this case, you need to stop in a safe place and put the car in order.

Of course, when such weather anomalies occur, the risk of “deaf” traffic jams in the city and mass accidents on highways increases significantly. Therefore, AvtoVzglyad portal recommends, if possible, not to travel by car in such adverse conditions.
