Weather, Visibility & EmergenciesStandalone practice
After a night of snow, you scrape a large clear area on your windshield. Snow still covers the roof, the other windows, the lights, the side mirrors and the license plates. What should you do before you drive?
Correct answer: Clear the snow and ice from all windows, lights, side mirrors and license plates, and the roof.
Why
In winter, clear snow and ice from the whole vehicle before you move it. Clear windows and mirrors let you see, and clean lights let other drivers see you and your signals. Wisconsin law requires you to keep your windows and lamps reasonably clean. After you start, drive slowly and leave extra room ahead.
