If weather forecasts are correct, the Pacific Northwest could see one of the worst winters in decades. That could, of course, mean treacherous driving conditions. KING 5's Christie Johnson drives with JC Fawcett with the Defensive Driving School in a car outfitted with a "Skid Monster," a device that simulates what happens when the car speed is too fast for road conditions or traffic situations. 

Fawcett's top three tips to stay safe on the road this winter are:
 
1. Stay home is you do not need to go out
2. Reduce your speed
3. Allow for an increased distance between you and the car in front of you
