Question 1 of 3
  1. 1. Your all-wheel-drive car accelerates easily on snow. What does that tell you about its stopping distance?
  2. 2. You can see the main body of a snowplow, but blowing snow hides its side. Why should you leave generous lateral clearance?
  3. 3. You are choosing where to store blankets, water and a flashlight for winter emergencies. Why might the back seat be better than the trunk?

  1. Your all-wheel-drive car accelerates easily on snow. What does that tell you about its stopping distance?

    Correct answer: It still needs extra time and distance to stop on the slippery road.

    Traction for moving off does not remove the effects of snow and ice on braking. WisDOT specifically reminds drivers that all vehicles, including AWD, need more stopping time and space.

  2. You can see the main body of a snowplow, but blowing snow hides its side. Why should you leave generous lateral clearance?

    Correct answer: A wing blade may extend beyond the visible body of the truck.

    Plow wings can project several feet beyond the truck and be obscured by snow. Do not judge the machine’s clearance solely from the part of the body you can see.

  3. You are choosing where to store blankets, water and a flashlight for winter emergencies. Why might the back seat be better than the trunk?

    Correct answer: The supplies remain reachable if the trunk jams or freezes shut.

    WisDOT suggests considering accessible storage because a trunk may be jammed or frozen. This is preparedness guidance, not a legal requirement to carry a particular kit. Secure supplies so they do not become hazards.
