Now that the snow has stopped, the biggest concern is ice on the roads, especially along some hilly streets in Worcester.

“We have a lot of hills here in the city, seven hills, and the challenges are on the hills, but on the main throughways I think we’re looking pretty good,” said Khrystian King while driving around Worcester.

Most of the main roads are now clear after another snowstorm hit the city on Tuesday, but it wasn’t easy for drivers during the evening commute as the snow turned to ice in some spots.

“It can be very dangerous, especially if you don’t change with the weather; you have to change your driving or you’re going to end up in trouble,” said Bruce Willard, a Worcester resident.

Lots of cars were in trouble as some spun out and crashed along the Mass. Pike.

“It can’t melt it’s so cold, so when it comes down it hits, it freezes, the cars go over it, melted and it freezes again,” Willard said. “And then it’s just a sheet of ice when you get to the stop areas, stop signs, stop lights, things like that.”

Willard said he saw a few cars slide through intersections, especially while making a turn. Another issue has been keeping windshields clear as ice quickly piled up on wipers.

“It may be hot inside but you’ve got to keep the windshield warm to melt it,” Willard said .

Winter driving tips from MassDOT:

- Clear snow and ice from all windows and lights, even the hood and roof, before driving, (start with the tailpipe).

- Leave plenty of room for stopping

- Remember that the posted speed limits are for dry pavement.

- Use brakes carefully. Brake early. Brake correctly. It takes more time and distance to stop in adverse conditions.

- Bridge decks freeze first. Due to the difference in the exposure to air, the surface condition can be worse on a bridge than on the approach road.

- Exit ramps are an even greater challenge during the winter since they may have received less anti-icing material than the main line.

- Leave room for maintenance vehicles and plows – stay back at least 200 feet and don’t pass on the right.

- Seat belts should be worn at all times – it’s the law.

- Most importantly please remember to slow down.
