Hello!

It's already the middle of December, and the winter solstice is almost here. As you probably know, the winter solstice is the day when the daylight hours are the shortest. In the summer, by the time you see the sunset, it gets pitch black outside, and these days, when the sun sets so early, you realize it's winter.

I usually drive a shipping truck, but every day I get nervous when it comes to snowy roads.

Meanwhile, I pay attention to the following things when driving.

There are many things you can do, such as reducing your speed and not driving in a ``sudden'' manner, leaving enough distance between vehicles and slowing down at curves and intersections, but I think the most important thing to do is to ``give yourself some leeway.'' This is because no matter what happens, you can make decisions calmly.

Although it doesn't seem to be related to driving, managing your physical condition is also important. Lack of sleep and fatigue can cause accidents, so you must be careful. The cold weather is about to get serious, so I want to take good care of my health and get through this season without any accidents and welcome spring.
