When driving in snow, you should:

Drive faster than usual
Drive in the tracks of the vehicle ahead
Change lanes often
Brake gradually

The correct answer is: Brake gradually

One should brake gradually because sudden braking on slippery roads can cause loss of control and lead to accidents. Driving faster than usual (option A) may lead to loss of control and increase the risk of accidents. Driving in the tracks of the vehicle ahead (option B) is not ideal as it does not allow you to maintain a safe distance between vehicles and you may not be able to see potential hazards ahead. Changing lanes often (option C) is unsafe in snow as it increases the chances of skidding or losing control.
