Sunday’s weather created some interesting driving conditions for many in the Greater Napanee region, with the OPP reporting many stuck vehicles in the ditch along Highway 401.
Before the weather gets any worse and you face the possibility of finding yourself in a similar situation, make sure that you’re prepared.
myFM spoke with Constable David Yome, L&A OPP Media Relations Officer, who shared some important tips with us.
But what should you keep in your emergency preparedness kit? Yome let us know.
A full tank of gas is also important in the case you become stranded for hours on the roadsides awaiting police assistance.
Before embarking on a journey, ensure your vehicle is entirely free of snow and ice. It’s also essential to check the weather forecast beforehand. If the weather predicts adverse conditions, consider rescheduling your travel plans to ensure a safe arrival at your destination.
