• Stay in your vehicle. Disorientation occurs quickly in wind driven snow and cold. People have been lost within a hundred feet of their vehicle.
• Run the motor about ten minutes each half-hour for heat, but:
• • Open the window a little for fresh air to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
  • Make sure the exhaust pipe is not blocked!
• Make yourself visible to rescuers by:
• • Turning on the dome light at night when running the engine.
  • Tying a colored cloth to your antenna or door.
  • Raising the hood (after snow stops falling) indicating trouble.
• Exercise from time to time by vigouously moving arms, legs, fingers, and toes to keep blood circulating and keep yourself warm.
• If appropriate and if there is time, give the caller with a number for a towing agency.
