Winter weather can make the conditions on the road more dangerous and unpredictable. It’s critical to adjust your driving and trip planning to match road conditions. Your safety comes first—no delivery is worth risking an accident.
Please keep the following reminders in mind while driving in winter conditions:
Driving in winter conditions
Driving in winter conditions
Increase following distance to maintain a safe buffer and escape route.
Watch for black ice, especially on bridges, ramps, shaded areas, and early mornings/nights.
Slow down and drive defensively—sudden braking or sharp turns increase the risk of losing control.
Shut down or pull over when needed if conditions feel unsafe or you are tired.
Communicate delays or route changes so we can reset expectations with the client as needed.
