Depending on the severity of the
weather where you drive your car, you
should carry appropriate emergency
equipment. Some of the items you
may want to carry include tire chains,
tow straps or chains, flashlight, emer-
gency flares, sand, a shovel, jumper
cables, a window scraper, gloves,
ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged posi-
tion. This is most likely to happen
