UK snow latest: Make sure your car is fully protected from STORM EMMA with these 10 tips
Car experts at Design 911 have issued Britons with a list of 10 ways to protect vehicles as Storm Emma approaches and is set to rampage the country.
Ensuring your vehicle is serviced and has undergone maintenance checks is vital to prevent it from failing when you need it most.
Blustery winter conditions can have adverse effects on your car’s battery. In addition to reducing its output, the vital part of the vehicle is under added stress from the heater, lights and blower that Britons will turn on in a desperate attempt to warm up.
Making sure tyres have sufficient pressure and meet the required tread depth standards is vital to ensuring your car is suited to the harsh weather.
It is recommended to have a minimum of 3millimetres of depth during winter time - the absolute minimum is 1.6millimetres.
Making sure your tread depth is in check will make for better grip on slippery roads.
As temperatures continue to plunge below freezing, it is important to make sure you have the correct dilution of antifreeze.
Engine coolant should be comprised of 50 per cent antifreeze and 50 per cent water.
Failure to maintain a supply of vehicle fluids could crack a car’s engine.
Checking for any cracks in your windscreen prior to a cold snap could save you having to replace it.
Cracks can easily get bigger when plagued with horrifying winter conditions and could shatter an entire windscreen.

Screen wash should also be topped up prior to using your car.
Ensuring that your car is fitted with a winter car breakdown kit will ensure if you do break down you are likely to get back on the road as soon as possible.
A shovel, high-visibility vest, blankets, torches and spare clothes should all be included in the case of an emergency.
Making sure your exterior lights are functioning correctly is pivotal when driving during terrible conditions at night.
Allowing other drivers to be made aware of your presence can prevent accidents occurring.
Checking that seat belts work as normal is critical in the event your car is involved in a crash and can save passenger lives.

Understanding that staying calm, having your hazard lights on and staying away from moving traffic are all necessary in the event your car breaks down is fundamental to avoid further accidents.
Adverse weather conditions are expected to last for the rest of the working week with the potential to spill over into the weekend.
The Met Office recently upgraded its amber warning to red in northern parts of the country as a precaution to further flurries of snow that are set to plague Britons.
