Motorists are reminded to drive to the conditions, ensuring they slow down, be alert and pay attention at all times.

Snow, ice and reduced visibility caused from adverse weather conditions require all motorists to drive with extra care.

A number of other safety actions to be taken by motorists whilst driving in adverse weather conditions include:

• Be alert at all times
• Always obey road traffic signs displaying hazardous conditions and/or road closures
• Drive with headlights on at times of poor visibility
• Ensure your windscreen is clean and demisted, and wiper blades are in good condition
• Ensure your vehicle is roadworthy and the tyres are in good condition and correctly inflated
• Leave plenty of space between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead of you.

Pedestrians are reminded that when crossing the road they should use the approved crossings at traffic lights, walkways and/or designed pedestrian crossings.
