I would put off driving, the accident where the four Indians died was due to fog, now we have limited visability and wind not a good mix. Good luck.

Hi,

If you must drive then:

1) stick to the streets rythem ( speed )

2) keep a logical distance between you and the car infront of you

3) have your day lights on

4) use the warning flashing lights only if you make a sudden stop or see danger ahead.

Best of luck to all

wishing you a safe drive home...or whereever

It 'd be safer to psotpone your drive as much as you can, till the storm settles, drive safe

Visibility would surely be poor. Just drive slow to be safe.
