How to drive on a icy road
Vehicle check
Do a quick vehicle check to understand if there is snow in the exhaust pipe. If yes, remove it by hand. Clear the snow around the tires with a portable shovel or with your hands.
Turn off the traction control
Disengage the in-built traction control system and try pulling the car away in the lowest gear. Do not accelerate hard because it will make the tires get stuck even further.
Ask for help
Ask people to rock the car back and forth from outside if you have people around. Your wheel may move in the other direction, making it easier to get the tires unstuck. You can also get in touch with the 24/7 roadside assistance services, which will help you get your car out of snow, jump start a dead battery, or fill an empty gas tank.
Add traction
You can spread traction-building agents like Walk on Ice to build traction in front of the tires. This will help you to disengage the tires from the snow quickly, making it easier to remove the vehicle. Whether it is how to drive on a icy roads to remove your vehicle from the snow, traction agents always help.

Conclusion
It’s also important that you don’t skid when turning corners, which means taking them slow enough so that your tires have time to gain traction before they start sliding around.
When driving on an icy surface, try using lower gears (1st gear) instead of higher gears (3rd gear) because this will help keep your tires from spinning out when trying to accelerate off-the-line at a stoplight or stop sign.
