The traffic police of the Vitebsk region warns: snow is currently falling in the region. It will freeze by morning – be careful.

Due to this, icy conditions are forming on the roads. We appeal to all drivers to be extremely careful, avoid erratic maneuvering and sudden braking, observe the speed limit and maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead.

Once again, attention should be paid to the condition of the wheels. Safety directly depends on the quality of the tires.

It is important to check the functionality of the windscreen wipers, demisting and heating systems for the windows, headlights, and sidelights. The windscreen washer fluid reservoir must be filled with antifreeze fluid. We advise checking the battery charge and ensuring the braking system and auxiliary electronic systems are in good working order.

Pedestrians should also not neglect safety measures: cross the road only at pedestrian crossings, ensuring that drivers are yielding to you. Parents should remind children of the traffic rules once more.
