On the A12 Genova-Roma, current conditions of reduced visibility are reported due to banks of fog. The phenomenon is particularly intense between the A12/Livorno branch junction and Collesalvetti.
All drivers are advised to pay particular attention and follow some simple rules for safe driving in foggy conditions:
-
Reduce speed: Limited visibility requires a reduction in speed to ensure control of the vehicle.
-
Use headlights: Turn on dipped headlights instead of fog lights when driving in fog.
-
Keep a safe distance: Increase the distance from the vehicle in front to have more time to react to any unforeseen events.
-
Listen to traffic information: Stay up to date on road conditions and any closures or changes to the route.
Road users are advised to drive with caution and be aware of current conditions to ensure a safe journey.
