(Patria) - Low temperatures this morning contribute to the formation of ice, so we call on drivers to be extra cautious.

"We particularly highlight sections in mountainous areas, as well as bridges, viaducts and approaches to tunnels. We draw attention to frequent landslides of earth or stones and remind that possession of winter equipment is legally mandatory until April 15.
