POLICE BRIEFS
Roads wet
and slippery
HURON — Huron OPP kept busy during
the night of Oct. 12, as a result of the rain
and wet snow, officers attended 5 motor
vehicle collisions sliding into the ditch.
The OPP Huron Detachment is reminding
motorists that the roads are slippery.
Motorists are reminded to slow down,
leave more space between vehicles and
refrain from accelerating, braking or
changing lanes on slippery surfaces if not
required to do so. Please refrain from call-
ing the OPP for weather and road condi-
tions, as this information will not be pro-
vided. If your vehicle slides into a ditch or
breaks down, please remain inside the
vehicle and call the OPP at 1-888-310-
1122 or * OPP (*677) on your cellular
phone. Remaining inside the vehicle is the
safest place to wait for assistance. If you
have abandoned your vehicle and it is
interfering with road maintenance opera-
tions, you may return to find it towed,
regardless if a note was left in the win-
dow. Please be patient if waiting for a tow
truck or emergency services. Calls will be
responded to on a priority basis. There is
no acceptable excuse to having been
involved in a collision. Collisions cannot be
blamed on the weather, but they can be
blamed on drivers failing to adjust their
driving.
