Police would like to remind road users to be aware of black ice and drive with caution in the central North Island this evening.
?
“We are urging motorists to drive to the conditions, keep their speeds down and allow plenty of stopping distance,” says Inspector Jason Homan.
?
“Council vehicles are gritting some affected locations and we want drivers to slow right down around these areas to keep themselves and road contractors safe.
?
“Our priority is everyone getting to their destinations safely, so take care on the roads tonight and share the message.”
