You’re starting a journey in freezing weather. What should you make sure is clear of snow and ice?

Explanation: Don't travel unless you really have to. Making unnecessary journeys will increase the risk of being involved in an incident. If you do decide to use your car, it's important that you can see and be seen. Make sure any snow or ice is cleared from lights, mirrors, number plates and windows.
