"The season of hazardous driv- member to drive slow on ice or snow. 5. When you stop on ice, don't jam on your brakes.

That risks a skid. "Pump" the brakes until the car comes to a halt. 6. Keep a safe distance between your car and the one ahead. You'll have a hard time explaining why you couldn't stop if the car ahead was able to.

7. Don't forget these rules before bad weather really sets in. And remember this, too, Chief Winn added: Tests have shown that with reinforced tire chains, a car going 20 miles an hour can stop in about 77 feet on glare ice and in 40 feet on hard-packed snow. The same car, with so called "winterized" tires, takes 188 feet to stop on glare ice and about 60 to 70 feet to stop on hard packed snow. Ing is near although it was long in coming this year we might as well face it," the chief said.

"The time to make your car winter-safe is before aa accident overtakes you." Chief Winn offers the following rules, supplied by the National Safety Council: 1. Don't blame the weatherman for accidents. Be prepared. 2. Get the "feel" of the road when starting out on wet or slippery mornings.

3. Keep the windshield clear of sleet, and frost. And be sure the windshield wiper blades, defrosters and all lights are in good condition. On Ice or Snow 4.
