Safe Smart Driving In New Brunswick Canada

 Used car or new car, if you are driving in New Brunswick Canada in the winter time, clean the snow off your car before you get in it and take a trip somewhere. Do you know what I mean by an Igloo driver? You know the person who has to make a 10 minute trip to town and he goes out jumps into his snow laden car and fires it up.

Inside the car is dark and shadowed even though it is 11 in the morning. The door windows are covered with snow on both sides, the rear window and the windshield is too. He turns on the wipers and they struggle to push their way through the layer of snow blanketing your front vision, they do make it up, down, up, down a couple of swipes and he is off for beers and hot-wings for the afternoon game.

That is The Igloo Driver.

It's really no big deal to clean the snow off of your vehicle when you are driving in the winter time. If you drive in an area with snowy winters then you most likely have the winter used cars Fredericton attire also. Gloves, coat, hat and winter shoes. It only takes a few minutes and the time will allow your car to warm up some, your vehicle won't throw heat anyway, until the temperature gauge starts to move upwards.

It is much safer to you and other drivers as well. When you drive with snow on your hood, as you build up speed that snow will most likely start to blow around. It won't always just blow off, it will blow back at you and swirl around which will impair your driving ability. The snow and chunks of snow/ice that will come off your vehicle could also be hazardous to other drivers. Could cause an accident!

If you do not remove the snow from your front and back side windows you will lose about 40 percent of your peripheral vision. It's not enough to just be able to see straight out in front of you, you have to have that side vision also. Snow and ice build up and accumulation is going to cost you more in the long run. This is like excess baggage or always driving with a carload of passengers.
