1. Slippery road

A slippery road is any road surface that reduces tire traction, making it easier for vehicles to slide, skid, or lose control. Slippery conditions are especially dangerous when accelerating, braking, or turning, and they require extra caution from drivers. A slippery road can catch you off guard and reduce your control—drive slower, smoother, and more alert to stay safe in tricky conditions.

  • Slow down – lower speed = better control.
  • Avoid sudden movements – brake, steer, and accelerate gently.
  • Increase following distance – gives you more time to react.
  • Use low gears in snow or slippery hills.
  • Don’t use cruise control on wet or icy roads.
  • Be extra cautious on bridges, overpasses, and shaded areas – they freeze first.
