Driver tips:
- Reduce speeds:Â Allow extra time to reach your destination, be patient as snowplows travel below the posted speed limits.
- Safe distance:Â Do not tailgate and give snowplows plenty of room to work, allow plenty of time to slow down.
- Pay attention:Â Drive distraction-free, focus on safe driving, be aware of surroundings and changing road conditions
