Environment Canada warns that an Arctic low pressure system will be tracking through Southern Ontario into Saturday. The OPP want to remind all motorists to ensure their vehicles are ready for winter conditions and think about their driving habits. They say that ensuring your vehicle is in top condition and slowing down will reduce the number of collisions which result in injury and death on our roadways. The OPP encourage all motorists to ensure their vehicles are fully prepared to meet the challenges winter driving brings. The checklist should include: Ensure your vehicle is mechanically sound and running well. Ensure your fuel tank is always above ½ full. Check to make sure your exhaust is free of holes or leaks. Replace your windshield wipers and put winter washer fluid in the reservoir. Put on winter tires for added traction and stopping ability. Ensure the vehicles defrost and interior heaters are working properly. Check all running lights to ensure you can see and be seen.
