Chicago winters are known for harsh temperatures, ice, and plenty of snow. The number of weather-related accidents always tends to increase this time of year, which is why it is important that all motorists exercise caution while on the road. Whether you are driving to work, taking children to school, or running errands, re-familiarize yourself with these winter driving safety tips – and stay safe on the roads!
It doesn’t matter if you have been driving in the snow and ice for years or have just started with a learner’s permit, these tips are essential for safe driving in Chicago winters:

When a driver fails to exercise caution or drives irresponsibly in poor weather, causing an accident, you could be entitled to compensation for your injuries.
