This past weekend, District 9 Illinois State Police handled nearly
62 crashes involving property damage and personal injury and one
fatal crash. Troopers also handled several incidents in which
motorists slid off the roadway into the ditch.
Wolf reminds motorists to:
-
Slow down and
increase your following distance.
-
Allow extra time
to get to your destination.
-
Understand that
the posted speed limit may be too fast for driving conditions.
-
During severe
conditions, avoid traveling unless absolutely necessary.
-
Remember, four-wheel-drive vehicles or
SUVs may help with traction, but these vehicles will not help
you stop any faster than a two-wheel-drive vehicle.
