Fall can be one of the most beautiful times of the year. Golden brown, orange, purple and red leaves cling to the trees and create a vibrant landscape. As beautiful as autumn is, it is not without its hazards.
Just like black ice, wet leaves can be dangerous to motorists by making roadways slippery. Drivers should slow down when roads are covered and navigate curves and turns more carefully. Dry leaves can also obscure road hazards.
Autumn leaves may be beautiful to see, but don’t let this beauty distract you while driving. Always stay alert and drive safely.
