Warning about water on the road in Lolland

Police in South Zealand and Lolland-Falster are warning about melting water on the roads due to recent warm weather.

Recent warm weather has led to melting snow, prompting the South Zealand and Lolland-Falster Police to issue a warning about water accumulation on the roads. The police have posted updates on social media advising drivers to be particularly cautious during dark hours due to the increased risk of aquaplaning. They emphasize that it is essential to remain alert as visibility may be compromised at night, raising the danger of accidents caused by the wet conditions.

According to the Danish Road Directorate's traffic information, there are specific areas on the South Motorway in Lolland where water has collected on the road surface. This information highlights the impact of recent weather changes on road safety and the need for appropriate precautions by drivers. The police are actively engaging with the public to ensure that this information is disseminated effectively, aiming to prevent incidents that could arise from these hazardous driving conditions.

The warning comes at a time when road conditions can vary significantly due to the seasonal transition from winter to spring. Authorities are urging the public to stay informed about weather forecasts and road conditions, as such advisories can change rapidly. With the potential for continued fluctuations in temperature, it is crucial for motorists to adjust their driving habits accordingly, particularly in areas known for water pooling on the roads.
