It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas but it can also mean that the driving conditions are slippery.
With the snowfall today, many police agencies are warning everyone to slow down as everyone gets used to winter driving again.
Remember, snow means slow and roads are getting slippery. Have a safe day.

It seems obvious but Gary Howard of CAA Atlantic recommends drivers put four winter tires on their vehicles.
He says some people put two winter tires which doesn’t make much sense at all and he likens it to wearing a slipper and a boot.
Howard also recommonds that everyone have a least half a tank of gas and make sure your car battery is working well.
He says they get a lot of calls from people in vehicles where their car battery has died.
The snow started after 8am in Saint John and is starting to build up on the streets and sidewalks.
