Weather, Visibility & EmergenciesStandalone practice
The temperature is near freezing and the road is wet. Which locations does Maryland’s manual identify as likely to freeze before other road surfaces?
Correct answer: Bridges and ramps.
Why
Bridges and ramps can freeze before other road surfaces. Near freezing, anticipate slippery patches and adjust your speed before reaching them. An apparently clear road elsewhere does not establish that a bridge or ramp has the same traction.
