Getting the 'feel' of road is important Getting the feel of the road is good advice the year around, but especially important during the winter, according to Robert D. Bailey, Vice President Traffic Safety, Utah Safety Council, in a statement he issued today. Many motorists practice this technique on snow- - and roads, but fail to do so at other times of the year, the safety official said. "This procedure should become a regular safe driving practice, regardless of the weather. " He was referring to the widely publicized technique of applying the brakes gently from time to time to get a sense of feel for the interaction between the tires and the road -- - and then adjusting driving habits accordingly. He cited the following ad- t j of practicing this vantages technique routinely, and cer- tainly whenever there is any question at all as to the con , , 1. On dry surfaces, youll get a reading of how well your brakes are operating. Water, overnight moisture, or the need for adjustment can cause slipping and grabbing brakes that will throw you out of control. Its best to have your braking system inspected, in advance, by a professional mechanic -- - along with a prewinter check of your car. 2. In addition to snow or ice, unstable traction can result from water on the road, calling for a feel of the road test by braking, or by accelerating carefully to see if and when wheels spin. Few drivers realize the extremely hazardous condition resulting from a combination of worn tires, traffic slicked pave- ments and heavy rain, , Baileys recommendation was one of six steps to safer winter driving developed by of the National skid-teste- y Ajt, Working as a team helping each other this is the combination that works at Mountain Bell.
