Safety tip of the week from your community minded tire & wheel resource:

DO NOT USE CRUISE CONTROL IN THE RAIN OR IN ICEY CONDITIONS!

Snow, ice, slush and even rain can cause wheel spin and loss of control and situations where drivers must react very quickly to.

Although drivers can disengage cruise control by simply touching the brake with their foot, any extra motion needed during a dangerous situation, can be especially dangerous when every milli-second of reaction time counts.
