Today, in the western part of Ukraine, the weather conditions have worsened – precipitation, wet snow, and ice. If you find yourself in a difficult situation on the road, call 102 immediately.
Law enforcement officers urge drivers to be as careful as possible on the roads and to strictly follow the Traffic Rules. Do not exceed the safe and permitted speed, maneuver carefully and turn on the turn signals in advance when changing the direction of traffic. Be especially careful when approaching regulated intersections and pedestrian crossings, children’s institutions.
And the police remind pedestrians: use reflective elements on your clothes – this will make you more visible on the road in conditions of poor visibility.
Remember that the braking distance of a car on a slippery road increases several times, and emergency braking may not give the desired effect.
And most importantly, be mutually polite and tolerant.
Have a safe trip everyone!
