Safe Travels: Tips and Tricks for Winter Weather Driving

Be Extra Cautious on Bridges and Overpasses

Bridges and overpasses tend to freeze faster than regular roadways, making them more prone to ice and hazardous conditions. Be aware that even if the rest of the road appears clear, bridges and overpasses may still be icy, so exercise caution and drive slowly across them.

Remember that black ice, a thin layer of transparent ice that forms on road surfaces, can be particularly hazardous on bridges and overpasses, as it may not be visible to drivers. Approach them with caution, reduce your speed, and always maintain control of your vehicle.
