CANADIAN WINTER DRIVER'S HANDBOOK

Description:

141 pages, 6" x 9", perfect binding, black and white interior ink

illustrated, index $14.95 US  print copy or $4.95 US -instant download

Canada's best Winter Driving Handbook showing you how to safely drive in severe winter conditions. Tells the story of how a Father Son team drove across Canada in the depths of winter in a $300 17 year old mini-van with 319,505km on it. In addition we have added the best ideas on winter driving researched from many jurisdictions and sources across Canada. What to do and what not to do to arrive safely!

If you ever are considering a winter road trip in Canada this is the best hand book to get. It tells you in detail how to drive in the most severe conditions how to reduce your risks and ensure that you make it to your destination safely. The book is based on a 4487km winter road trip made between Victoria, BC and North Bay, Ontario where everything that could have happened weather wise did. An excellent gift for any driver who spends time on Canada's winter roads. Canadian winter driving conditions can be some of the most difficult on the planet with blowing snow, reduced visibility, ice, low temperatures, wild life and long distances between service centres. It is not the same as driving in the cities and knowledge and skills and equipment are required to complete your trip safely. We show you how in a handbook that you can keep in your glove box. The pictures taken by the Authors during their road trip give a real life quality to the handbook that shows you they are not kidding about the challenges you will meet. Even professional drivers will be able to pick up some tips that might make the difference between making it or not.
