The Main Directorate of the State Traffic Police of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Azerbaijan addressed road users due to foggy weather.
As the department told Day.Az, the appeal says:
“According to the National Hydrometeorological Service, due to the foggy weather that is currently observed in the republic, in a number of regions, including the Absheron Peninsula, visibility on the roads is limited to 50-500 m.
Taking into account the fact that foggy weather creates difficulties in terms of timely and clear visibility of other road users and controls, drivers are advised to be more attentive in such weather, choose speed in accordance with weather conditions, pay attention to the serviceability of vehicles, especially external lighting devices , strictly follow safety rules when overtaking and maneuvering.
Pedestrians are asked to be more responsible when entering the roadway, given that in foggy weather it is difficult for drivers to clearly see the roadway and shoulders.”
