On Christmas Eve in wind and snow,

It's Christmas Eve, but not everyone can make it home to celebrate. With icy roads, heavy flurries, and piles of snow, driving in this weather can be dangerous! Luckily, Red Truck, wrapped in festive lights, is on the job to make sure everyone gets home to spend Christmas with their families.
