Preparing your vehicle for the harsh winter could reduce your chance for an accident.

LJ Lobsinger Jr. is a nationally syndicated writer and the founder of Detroit Muscle.  He joined the NBC25 team Wednesday morning via Skype to talk about some ways to get your vehicle ready now before the weather conditions get worse. You can see those tips in the video box above.

Some of the simple tips include ensuring your tires are ready, having the proper windshield wipers, and being aware of what to do if you do get into a spin-out or crash.

Always remember, as well, that when the roads are slick is it important to drive slowly and give yourself plenty of extra time to reach your destination.

What are some tips you have for winter driving?  Tell us them in the comment section below.
