Driving in Oklahoma City in the winter is hectic. When the snowstorms come, or even ice, many drivers opt to hit the highways as opposed to cruising through the main city streets.

It may feel like you have come in contact with every driver in the metro area, and if you’re not looking to get stuck in the slow-moving traffic, there may be a way to evade it all.

Oklahoma provides a map of the cameras throughout their highway systems with views of how traffic, snowfall and other factors impact your commute.

If you’re looking for a way to slide through the traffic, here are some ways you can prepare for the road ahead.
