DAYTON -- Ohio Department of Transportation wants to remind drivers to plan enough time to arrive at your destination, wipe off all snow from your vehicle's lights and blinkers and make sure you slow down.
Also, keep in mind that you should never slam on your brakes if you hit ice, but tap them lightly.
Street departments across the Miami Valley have been preparing all day for the first snow fall for the area.
Kettering's street department spent the day loading up salt trucks for the roads.
As soon as winter weather hits the first eight trucks will head out to the roads.
Crews say it's been hard to prepare for the storm because of the rain that fell Thursday morning.
Street Maintenance Manager Greg Moore says they couldn't pre-treat the roads because it would all wash away.
