Motorists urged to drive with care on rainy day

***********************************************

Owing to wet weather, motorists are advised to drive with extra care.

Traffic Police pointed out that under such condition, twice the normal stopping distance is required. Motorists are therefore urged to reduce speed and to extend the distance between themselves and the vehicle in front.

They should also turn on vehicle headlights if visibility is poor.

Pedestrians are also advised to take heed of traffic while crossing the roads, particularly at busy junctions or when their view is obstructed.
