Al Mazroui reminded road users to exercise caution, adhere to safety rules, and to reduce speeds while driving during fog and unstable weather conditions. He explained that accidents that happen during bad weather conditions tend to be more severe. Therefore, motorists must keep a safe distance between cars and adjust their speed to the weather conditions.
