If you are driving in the snow and need to stop, “pump the brakes.” This technique allows
you to stop your car on the iciest street. Depress the brake pedal firmly with a single, then
release the pressure immediately. Repeat until you come to a stop. (Don’t use this
technique if your car is equipped with anti lock brakes!) When turning on icy streets, if
your car starts to spin, steer into the turn. In other words, if your car’s near end slides to
the right, gently steer to the right. If it slides to the left, gently steer to the left. Once the
car has begun to straighten, steer straight ahead. When at a stop, use gentle acceleration to
move forward to avoid spinning the tires so rapidly that they fail to grip the snow.

several others were injured,” said Ahmadi, a witness.
One more victim died following the incident, bringing the total number of fatalities to five. All
residents injured in the incident were taken to Ken Saras Hospital and are receiving medical
treatment. The hospital’s spokesperson Elsih Listanti said the identities of the deceased victims

district,” Elsih said.
