Make sure your steps and walkways are clear before you walk.
*Be careful if you see wet pavement that could be iced over.
*Clear away snow and salt your walkways at home or hire someone to do it.
*Wear boots with non-skid soles.
*If you use a cane, replace the rubber tip before it is worn smooth.
*Consider an ice pick-like attachment that fits on the end of the cane for additional traction.
