Have to head out? AAA shared these winter safe driving tips:

• Take the time to make sure snow and ice are cleared from your vehicle. Especially the hood, roof and windows. It's the law in NJ!
• Drive with your headlights on – it's the best way to see and be seen.
• Leave extra space between you and the vehicle in front of you – increasing your following distance will allow you more time to see problems and more space to react to them.
• Lower your speed – the faster you go the harder it is to stop or swerve.
• If your car goes into a skid, turn the steering wheel in the direction you want the vehicle to go – avoid jamming on the brakes.
• Make sure your cell phone is fully charged before heading out.
