Here are a few ways to stay safe on the road during cold, wet or snow days.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- If you're heading to work or school, you'll want to be careful as the roadways will be wet.



Here are some tips on how to stay safe on the roads:



  • Be sure to leave some distance between you and other drivers.


  • If you have to drive over bridges and overpasses, keep in mind that they could have ice on them.


  • Check your thermometer inside your car. If it's 31 degrees or lower, the roads may have ice on them.


  • Make sure your windshield wipers are working before hitting the road.


  • And most importantly slow down.
