Wildfire smoke is lingering in the area, reducing visibility and creating hazardous conditions.
Stay safe with these tips:
• Slow Down – Smoke can make it difficult to see ahead. Reduce your speed so you can stop safely.
• Use Low-Beam Headlights – High beams reflect off the smoke, making it harder to see.
• Increase Following Distance – Give extra space between your vehicle and the one ahead.
• Follow Road Markings – Use lane lines and edge markers to stay on the correct course.
• Minimize Distractions – Stay focused; avoid using your phone or adjusting the radio.
• Pull Over if Necessary – If visibility is too poor, find a safe place to pull over.
• Use Wipers & Defroster – Keep your windshield clear for improved visibility.
• Turn on Hazard Lights – If visibility drops significantly, alert other drivers.
• Watch for Stopped Vehicles – Smoke can obscure parked cars and other road hazards.
Stay alert and drive with caution!
