Always insist on the right-of-way over a vehicle when using a crosswalk.

Never enter a street or crosswalk when vehicles are approaching.

Enter a crosswalk at any time because it is the vehicle driver’s responsibility to stop.

You should not use cruise control on snow, in rain, in fog, or under similar hazardous conditions. Winter is the most difficult driving season and requires extra caution from drivers.

Hit the brakes firmly and jerk the steering wheel hard to pull the vehicle onto the road surface as quickly as possible.
