The OPP are reminding the motoring public to take it easy on area highways this winter. Constable Carol Michtics says people need to modify their driving habits to ensure you have additional time to arrive at your destination in case road and weather conditions make it hard to travel. Michtics says you should ensure your gas tank is full, take time to clear your windows and lights, and carry warm clothing and boots in case of an emergency. Michtics recommends calling for road conditions before heading out on the road. The MTO's road conditions hotline is 1-800-268-4686.
