They give the vehicle put snow antiskid tyre; In the rear of the vehicle increase the weight, thus increasing vehicle traction; They carry the snow shovel, salt and a blanket, because they realize that they are likely to be trapped in the snow, so you need to prepare. Prepared another example is that you on the plane, the need to find where is the exit of the aircraft, because you realize what may happen to you quickly leave the plane, so you want to prepare for this, remember the location of the exit: it is in front of you or behind, it is the left or right, how many rows from you, and so on.
