What should a driver do if the vehicle's windows and mirrors are covered in ice?

Correct Answer

Switch on the heating system and use a scraper to clear the ice before driving.

Explanation: Make sure all the windows and mirrors are completely clear of ice so that the driver can safely observe road and traffic conditions all around. This is especially important when driving in slippery conditions. It is good practice to carry a can of de-icer in the vehicle and if possible to fill the washer reservoir with a de-icing agent.
