watching your speed in adverse weather

Always drive your vehicle in adverse conditions to the speed you are comfortable with(even if it means everyone else is "speeding" past you).


Never try to keep up if you are not comfortable or let others manipulate you on the CB.

Always respect the weather conditions never fear them this will cause you to second guess yourself and might cause an accident if you are that uncomfortable then pull over at the first safe location.

The load just isn't worth the risk. Remember it is you behind the wheel and not your dispatcher or the consignee so it is you life and the lives of others around you.
