On bridges and shaded spots, frost and ice form quicker and stay longer than on the rest of the roadway. Slow down before you reach them.

Correct answer: Pass completely and on the left, without lingering alongside it

When entering an intersection, it is recommended to look first to your left, then to your right, and then left again. Be prepared to yield.

Correct answer: Keep firm and continuous pressure on the brake pedal

Keep firm and continuous pressure on anti-lock brakes. Manually pumping them or letting up turns the system off and on and decreases its effectiveness.
