Winterize Your Car For Safety :o)

Do you believe injuries are preventable?  While an accident, by definition, is random and therefore not preventable, that does not mean that we cannot do things to minimize their potential.

Winter weather brings slippery roads and reduced visibility.  Is your car up to the challenge?  Simple things you can do to keep your car running safety this winter:

Check tire condition.  Use a tire thread gauge available from auto-parts stores.
Increase tire pressure to the upper limit (they loose air as it gets colder).
Top off the windshield washer reservoir, and keep a bottle in the trunk.
Replace your wiper blades.
Give windows a thorough cleaning on the inside (internal dirt decreases visibility decreased with window fogging).
Change your oil.
Clean battery terminals or buy a new battery if you have doubts.

This has been a Bucko's World Public Service Announcement :o)
