Record snowfalls can make for beautiful scenery, but not so beautiful driving conditions. Here are few safety tips to consider when driving during an Alaskan winter.
>Always leave plenty of space between you and other vehicles on the road
>Don’t get too close to the edge of the road, snow build up can pull you into snow banks and railing
>The brakes are not always your friend - leave yourself plenty of time for a gradual stop
>Use your turn signal – giving other drivers notice of your intentions is not only courteous, it can prevent an accident
