Traffic during the winter holiday season has been notably smooth across Finland, as families and individuals leave the capital region, Varsinais-Suomi, and Satakunta for their destinations. According to the Road Traffic Centre, the peak traffic has already passed, and driving speeds have remained good throughout the journey. The calm flow indicates effective traffic management, allowing many travelers to set off without excessive delays.

So far, there have been no significant traffic jams or serious accidents reported on the major exit routes from the capital and along key highways such as 4, 5, and 9. This positive traffic experience contrasts with typical holiday chaos, highlighting an efficient preparation by authorities for the winter holiday rush. However, travelers are advised to prepare for potential delays tomorrow, especially near popular tourist destinations in the north as more people are expected to travel.

Overall, road conditions have been favorable for drivers, although caution is recommended at intersections and ramps where icy conditions can occur. The combination of successful traffic management and good weather has made this winter holiday travel period one of relative ease for those embarking on their journeys.
