Black ice is an almost invisible and thin coating of ice on the road surface. Because it is hard to see, it is dangerous. When the temperature drops close to freezing you can expect black ice - in sheltered or shaded areas of the roadway under trees or beside high walls. Helpful tools like snow chains and studded tires grip into snow-laden roads to create traction. Even with these tools, tires DON'T have traction on black ice. What to do if you skid on black ice?
