Małopolska police issue autumn road safety advice
Police from the Road Traffic Department in Krakow have issued safety recommendations for drivers facing changing autumn weather conditions. Key advice includes planning for winter tire changes, as summer tires lose grip in low temperatures, and adopting a defensive driving style with increased following distances.
Drivers are encouraged to maintain vehicle visibility by checking windshield washer fluid levels, ensuring interior windows are clean to prevent fogging, and verifying that external lights and headlights are properly adjusted. Additionally, police recommend checking tire pressure at gas stations to ensure optimal braking and stability, as well as inspecting the spare tire.
