quickly become treacherous at the
next bend in the road...
ice patches, frost, sudden snow
squalls, even wet leaves create
unexpected hazards. But during
the Holiday Season these hazards
tend to increase.
Poor visibility combined with
heavy traffic throughout the
Holiday Season means youmust
be in good condition to drive
under these conditions. So must

times. If you drink, don't drive.
And always watch out for the
other drivers. Assume there's
trouble ahead even when condi-
tions look safe. Help make sure
you and your famify will be here to
enjoy another great Ontario
Holiday Season.
