(Patria) - On the Glamoč – Mliništa – Kupres road section, the snow that fell since this morning, March 17, has significantly slowed down traffic.

Drivers on this road section warned in Viber groups that there is a collapse on this road section and that those who don't have to should avoid this section.

As seen in the published videos, trucks are skidding on this part of the road due to snow and ice, causing traffic jams.
