When it rains and then the temperature drops, this is when the water freezes and creates ideal icy road conditions. You need to be the most careful if you need to drive. If you don’t have winter tires on (and even if you do), you’ll find it almost impossible to steer on icy roads. You may find that you are not able to safely stop at intersections. Avoid hills. You won’t be able to go up hill and will have no control of your car going down hill: And please don’t do as these folks are doing in the video: don’t stand around your car waiting for another car to crash into it.
