ANSWER: C) Correct!One of the most treacherous weather conditions a motorist can experience is freezing rain. Freezing rain is caused by rain falling into a near-surface sub-freezing layer, getting chilled to slightly below freezing (super-cooled), and then freezing on impact into a layer of ice.

If there is no avoiding the icy patches on the road, slowly creep over them using the gas sparingly. You should always use your headlights, even in the daytime.

Front-wheel drive vehicles may lose traction to the front wheels if the driver removes his or her foot from the gas pedal while taking a curve on an icy or snowy road. This is because of drag caused by compression that takes place in nearly all automobile engines.

However, if the vehicle has a manual transmission, putting the clutch in will eliminate this drag, and help the front wheels maintain traction. Otherwise, the driver can use caution by maintaining just enough gas pedal pressure to avoid engine drag


All who guessed got it right!
