Driving in winter weather - snow, ice, wet, and cold - creates a great challenge for both vehicles and their drivers. Nearly 30% of car accidents in Canada happen on snowy or icy roads. According to Traffic Accident Information System (TAIS) reports, 5% of accidents occur during a snowfall. It is a chilling fact - more than 50,000 accidents a year will be caused by winter precipitation. Nearly 40% of all work-related crashes that result in injury and time loss occur between November and February.
