RCMP are reminding drivers to drive carefully and give yourself extra time to stop during the slippery season.

Cochrane RCMP has released a statistic that over 8000 people were injured last year alone because of accidents involving intersections.

They are urging divers to begin stopping ahead of the stop to allow time to come to a complete stop.

Tickets for incomplete stops at stop signs/red lights can be up to 388 dollars and result in three demerit points.

65 people last year were killed because of intersection related incidents.
