There are two components to getting ready to face winter on our Canadian roads. The first is your vehicle: what should you be replacing? What should you be checking? Is giving someone a boost still a good thing? Host Lorraine Sommerfeld is joined by Chris Muir, long-time mechanic and professor at Centennial College. Find out how important winter tires are, the value of rust proofing, and the best way to charge a dead battery. He'll even throw in some good tips for those of you with electric vehicles. The second thing to consider is you - the driver. Lorraine is also joined by Michelin pro driver and instructor Carl Nadeau who shares tips to stay out of icy trouble, what to do if you end up sliding or spinning, how to handle a surprise whiteout, and many other things that could save your car - or even your life.
