Greater Sudbury Police are reminding motorists that with the freezing rain, roads have become extremely hazardous.

Remember to reduce your speed on area bridges which freeze up quickly and at intersections where exhaust fumes create icy patches.

Speed limits are posted for ideal road conditions. Because of the weather conditions, reduced speed is imperative to ensure road safety. Drive defensively and clean all windows on your vehicle prior to leaving a location. This gives you the opportunity to observe and react to hazards on the road such as someone losing control.

It is an offence to not have a clear view from any windows of your vehicle and you are subject to a $110 fine if you are caught driving with your windows iced up.
