The presence of banks of fog is reported along the A25 Torano-Pescara motorway, in particular in the section between the A25/A24 Rome-Teramo junction and Pescina. Visibility in this area is reduced to 80 metres, which requires increased caution for all motorists in transit.
It is essential to follow some instructions to ensure safety when driving in conditions of poor visibility:
-
Reduce your speed: maintaining a speed lower than the permitted limit can make the difference in foggy conditions.
-
Increase your safety distance: maintaining a greater margin from the vehicle in front allows you to react in time to any unforeseen events.
-
Turn on your headlights: use dipped beam headlights and not high beams, as the latter can reflect light into the fog and further reduce visibility.
-
Avoid risky overtaking: in conditions of fog, overtaking can be risky and should only be done when visibility allows.
All road users are therefore advised to proceed with caution in this area and to follow the instructions provided by the road authorities.
