When your car gets stuck in the snow or ice, you can put something under your tire to help get it unstuck. Sand, salt, and kitty litter are three of the most popular things to use, so which one is the best?

  • Sand: Sand works by providing a grittiness that your tires can grab onto. Sand does not dissolve or melt ice, but it does dry the area a little bit.
  • Salt: Salt actually melts the ice, which can help make the area around the tire more dry. But salt dissolves so it won't be super gritty.
  • Kitty Litter: Kitty litter absorbs all the moisture around the tire, drying up the area so the tire has a dry surface.
