Frost warning in the Rems-Murr district: How to make your car winter-proof!

The cold season brings with it difficult conditions, and the German Weather Service (DWD) warned on December 11th of Frost in the Rems-Murr district and in the city of Stuttgart. This frost warning applies from Wednesday evening to Thursday morning. In the midst of these winter challenges, an investigation by the ADAC shows that many of the advertised frost gadgets are very good for drivers. Electric ice scrapers and heating fans, which fell through tests and could not meet expectations, are particularly disappointing. Some of these devices could even be dangerous, such as at the risk of a short fire if the ice scraper accident remains in the car. In this context, drivers of the region have a big need for reliable tips for the winter.

In order to get through the winter well, drivers should not only rely on problematic gadgets. According to ADAC, essential objects such as hand sweepers, ice scrapers and a replacement windscreen was added to the standard equipment in the car. Good preparation through regular controls is also essential. The cooler frost protection should be checked at least up to -25 ° Celsius, and at the petrol station or in the workshop, this can be easily determined with a test device. It is also recommended to constantly check windscreen wipers and lighting so that the car always works perfectly even under the most difficult conditions.

It is also important to check the tire states: winter tires must have a profile of at least 4 mm to drive safely on snow and ice. Those who do not adhere to these regulations not only risk fines, but also difficulties in insurance in the event of an accident. Further helpful tips for preparing for the winter conditions can be found at the ADAC , which provides a comprehensive checklist for all drivers. It is clear that careful preparation of the keys to a safe and stress -free journey is snow -covered roads.

In summary, both the weather warnings of the DWD and the tests of the ADAC show that drivers must be informed about the correct approach for the winter months. The wrong choice of products can not only make driving uncomfortable, but in the worst case lead to dangerous situations. It is therefore advisable to rely on proven aids and comprehensive information in order to get through the frosty months safely.
