Icy conditions refer to weather situations where temperatures drop below freezing, causing water on surfaces to freeze. This can lead to the formation of ice on roads, sidewalks, and other areas, making them slippery and hazardous. Icy conditions are common during winter months and can result from rain, snow, or melting ice that refreezes. When driving in icy conditions, it is important to exercise caution. Vehicles may lose traction, increasing the risk of accidents. Using winter tires and maintaining a safe distance from other cars can help improve safety. Awareness of local weather forecasts can also assist in preparing for potential icy conditions.
