American 1st choice from safety point of view ?
I lived in Edmonton over 20 years, to survie in winter road conditon should be a series of factor, namely :-
) h8 m. {* k* l0 J3 Q1. attitude of driving, don't speed nor race with other bad driver, 2. pay full attention on road condtion and other vehicles on the road. & _2 T/ j3 i* h. @; U
3. adjust speed according to vision, road and weather condtion 4. Do not drive your vehicle unless it has been properly maintained, 5. must use snow tire with proper inflation according to owner's manual,
5 k/ B1 y$ ]0 N' E$ I2 Q$ x 6. take no chance, don't hurry, 0 c/ o9 K4 `4 f V" L
From my observation, when road condtion is bad (such as freezing rain ) half of the vehicles in the ditch between 23rd ave to Internation airport were truck/SUV with 4 wheel drive worth over $50,000, equipted with expensive tires ( can be $500. each tire ) !!! & v9 L) [ d& a, l- u, W
Conclusion ---- combination of speed, attitude, carelessness , poor maintained vehicle, bad judgement, etc3 `' u. E& V' B! f* E
not the brand of vehicle nor where it is made. |
