Nature And Its Many Ways To Warn Us Of Impending Disasters

Glossy Pavement Is Often Dangerous During Wintertime

Black ice is not really black, but it is ice so clear that you cannot easily see it. This is the reason it is so dangerous to walk or even drive on. Black ice normally happens when temperatures approach the freezing point after it rains. The water actually becomes ice as soon as it makes contact with the sidewalk or pavement! Before you drive off, be extra careful and remain alert for areas where there are both dry and glossy spots on the road. Keep calm and try to maintain a controlled speed.
