NORCROSS, GA, January 09, 2013 (Press-News.org) Several winter conditions, such as snow and ice, can be difficult to navigate, which is why ensuring your car's brakes are working appropriately is a must, acknowledges Express Oil Change & Service Center, who provides the best oil change Auburn, AL, has to offer. Icy roads are hazardous to any driver at any time, but proceeding in icy conditions without good brakes can lead to devastating consequences. First and foremost, if you are experiencing this condition, slow down and do not fully slam your brakes. Your brakes can lock, causing the car to spin and slide. You should always drive through icy conditions at a slower speed and gently tap your brakes to stop.
"Icy roads need good brakes, or you may find your car spinning out of control," states John Pearson, Director of Marketing for Express Oil Change & Service Centers. "If your brakes are worn, there will not be enough grip to stop the car, which could result in an accident."
You should have your brakes regularly inspected throughout the year to ensure balanced wear. Before the winter months, all drivers should have their brakes inspected by a certified tune-up clinic, such as Express Oil Change & Service Center, to check if replacements are needed. Good brakes can ensure the car will stop in a suitable fashion, if the car hits ice or water.
Auburn oil change specialists, Express Oil Change & Service Center, want drivers to make it safely to their families' and friends' homes, or wherever your place of celebration is this holiday season. Take your car into a local mechanic to make sure you are all set to hit the road.
