When you walk outside to find a car covered in ice and snow, you should remove everything from the car before driving. This helps you see when you drive. Don't just clean off a hole that you can see out of. This can significantly decrease your visibility. Clean off all windows and mirrors before leaving your home. You should also clean the snow off lights so other drivers can see your headlights, blinkers, and brake lights. Brush off your hood, trunk, doors, and roof. Snow can slide onto your windows and block your view, which won't be good when you're driving! It can also sling off and hit another car. Many states require by law that you remove all snow before getting on the road. You may be stressed and running behind, but your safety comes first! No matter how long you have been driving, you should drive slowly in winter weather. Even if you have winterized your car, you may still lose control of your car. By driving slowly and paying attention, you not only keep control of your car, but can be aware of those around you who many not be as careful as you. Press the gas and brake pedals gently. Speed up and slow down slowly and take it easy as you turn. Make sure to start braking early to avoid sudden stops. Stopping on wintry roads is very different than dry roads. You should not try to stop the same way you do on normal roads. That may cause an accident! Leave at least eight to ten seconds to stop. Gently press the brake with the ball of your foot and avoid slamming on brakes. If possible, take your foot off the gas pedal to slow down at red lights and try to roll to it until it turns green so you don't have to stop. You should double the distance you normally would between you and the vehicle in front of you. Keep scanning the vehicles in front of you and look out for brake lights. If you've kept your distance, you should be able to bring your vehicle to a stop with distance to spare instead of having to slam on your brakes and sliding into the vehicles in front of you. When you approach a hill, don't press the gas pedal hard to try to get up the hill. This can cause you to spin. Instead, try to use inertia to get up the hill. Don't stop on the hill because it can be difficult to get going again. If you have to press the gas pedal, do it gently and slowly. Skidding can be extremely scary! To correct for any skid, release the gas slightly and turn your wheels in the direction you want to go, very gently. Be careful not to over correct and do not press the gas until you are headed in the direction you want to go again. If the car does not seem to turn, or turns too wide, easing off of the gas lightly might do. If that doesn't work, tap the brakes lightly and steer just slightly tighter into the corner. Simply panicking and steering sharply into the corner will only reduce control. If the car is hydroplaning, gently ease off of the gas without lifting off of it completely. If necessary, ease off completely. Cruise control can be a relaxing way to drive. However, during winter weather, you shouldn't use the cruise control on your car. This takes the acceleration and deceleration out of your control. On slippery surfaces that have snow, ice, or sand, this may cause you to slide or lose control of your car.

Summary: Clean off your car before driving. Drive slowly. Leave plenty of space for stopping. Keep a safe distance from the vehicles in front of you. Avoid speeding up hills. Learn to deal with skidding. Avoid using cruise control.

Proceed 1 row after the other, remembering to alternate the placement of the seams between rows. Check your work as you go. There should be no gaps between the planks. It may be necessary to rip the final row of planks (cut them lengthwise) to get them to properly fit the remaining space. After every 2-3 rows, set a piece of heavy furniture or a stack of boxes or similar objects on top of the new laminate. The added weight will flatten out the planks and help them settle into place. It will also prevent them from shifting or coming dislodged while you finish up the rest of the floor. Allow the weighted objects to remain in place until you begin installing the next few rows. You also have the option pushing a weighted roller over the entire floor when you've finished installing it. Measure each doorway, threshold, closet, or nook in the room where the laminate will meet another type of flooring. Trim the included transition strips to the appropriate length, then tap them down until they're seated snugly. Don't subtract the 38 inch (0.95cm) expansion gap allowance for the transition strips. They need to be left slightly longer in order to sit flush. Pick out a set of wood moulding that matches the look of your new flooring. Alternatively, you can reattach the same baseboards and trim you were using before. Fasten the moulding with finishing nails, then stand back and admire your handiwork! Measure and cut new moulding to the room specifications you took previously. Don't forget to remove the spacers from around the edges of the room before putting the moulding back on.

Summary: Continue assembling the planks until you've covered the entire subfloor. Apply pressure to the flooring. Place transition strips at doorways and other openings. Install quarter-round moulding around the edges of the room.
