Police remind drivers to clear vehicle of frost, ice and snow

It’s tough to drive when you can’t see where you are going.

Ontario Provincial Police are reminding the public to clear their windshields of frost, ice and snow.

Police say it only takes a few minutes to properly clear off the vehicle and that should include the wiper blades and it’s illegal to drive windows blocked by snow or ice.
