If the road ahead is slippery, you must reduce your speed

Correct answer

  • by one-third.
  • by 5 to 10 mph.
  • by half.

Explanation

If the road ahead is slippery, it will not provide the grip your tires need. You will have to drive slower than you would on a dry road. You must slow down by at least 5 to 10 mph. On packed snow, cut your speed in half. On ice, slow down to a crawl.
