Twp. of Washington NJ, below please find a few Winter Driving tips from the Washington Township Police:

Never warm up a vehicle in an enclosed area, such as a garage. Also never leave your vehicle running unattended
Make certain your tires are properly inflated
Keep your gas tank at least half full to avoid gas line freeze-up
Do not use cruise control when driving on any slippery surface
Use your seat belt every time you get into your vehicle
Drive slowly. Everything takes longer on snow-covered roads. Accelerating, stopping, turning – nothing happens as quickly as on dry pavement. Give yourself extra time to maneuver by driving slowly
Have a Winter Car Emergency Kit with items such as blankets, medical kit, flares, water and anything you feel you would need in an emergency to keep yourself safe and comfortable.

The Township of Washington Police Department also wants to remind everyone to clear and remove snow and ice off your vehicle. It is extremely dangerous driving with snow/ice covering the windows as well as the roof/hood/trunk. Please remove all snow and ice before you go. Failure to do so can result in a ticket (NJ Title 39:4-77.1 Failure to remove Ice and Snow from a vehicle).
