<human>:  How do I stay safe while driving in the winter?
<bot>: Make sure you check the weather and road conditions before you start your journey. Allow extra time for your trip and adjust your speed to make sure you can react to slippery road conditions. Make sure you keep your gas tank more than half full at all times, as this will help keep your fuel line from freezing. Equip your vehicle with winter tires and make sure you check the tire pressure regularly. Increase your following distance to give yourself more time to react and be aware of potentially icy patches of road, especially on bridges and overpasses.
