Ice and snow – an expensive problem
Slippery roads cause huge losses for the transportation and distribution industry every year. The losses stem from non-delivery, damaged goods, damaged vehicles and human injuries. All as a result of insufficient road grip. As a driver you can take proper actions to increase traction to avoid these losses.

Did you know?
When roads are slick with ice or snow, chains are by far the most effective tool to get traction.
Freezing rain and the resulting black ice is extremely deadly – it kills more people than tornadoes, hurricanes, lightning and floods. 70% of winter weather deaths in the USA are caused by icy road accidents.
The slipperiness of ice changes with temperature, with ice being more slippery when it warms to near freezing.
