Invest in 4 matching winter tires. Made from softer rubber, they provide better traction in extreme cold
Check for proper inflation prior to setting out
Keep a bucket of an abrasive like salt, sand or ash in the trunk of your car with a small or collapsable spade for digging out snow and spreading abrasive
Keep one or two pairs of snow chains on hand in case you are caught in a snowstorm - these provide superior traction, but cannot be driven over 30 MPH
Some snowtires will accept studs for additional traction, but be sure they are legal in your state
Slow down and pay attention, pull over if you need to use your phone!
