Driving in snow requires special precautions because **tires have less grip on the road**, which means the vehicle needs more space to brake. For this reason, it is important to **brake and accelerate smoothly**.

- **Avoid sudden movements**: Sudden changes in speed or abrupt movements with the steering wheel should be avoided, as this can cause the vehicle to lose control.
- **Brake gently**: Using the brake as little as possible and doing so gently helps maintain control of the vehicle.
- **Accelerate smoothly**: When starting, it is advisable to choose a speed that allows the vehicle to move faster but with little engine power, thus preventing the wheels from skidding.

These measures help maintain control of the vehicle in snowy conditions, reducing the risk of accidents.
