The sun is out in , but some roads are still a bit tricky. Our deputies are still responding to a lot of crashes, many due to speed and the slushiness of the roads. Slush on roads can be just as nasty as plain old water; it causes hydroplaning. #slowwaydown

The low sun angle, especially combined with snow on the ground, can cause a glare that makes driving difficult in the winter months. Keep your sunglasses handy and slow down when there’s sun glare.
