TUCSON, Ariz. — As rain continues throughout the day in Southern Arizona, Arizona Department of Transportation is reminding drivers to watch their speed on the roadways:
If heading to the northern parts of the state, ADOT is reporting snowy conditions and road closures on Interstate 40 in Seligman and on SR-260 near Heber-Overgaard. The department has deployed some of its snowplows. ADOT says if driving behind a snowplow, do not attempt to pass:"Motorists are reminded not to tailgate a snowplow – leave four car-lengths between the snowplow and your vehicle – and do not pass a snowplow. Let the snowplow clear the roadway of snow and ice, allowing for safer travel for everyone."Many of them are outfitted with cameras.
Here is the view from four of those plows that are currently working to keep our highways clear. #aztraffic #azwx pic.twitter.com/4dxVGl6vrE — Arizona DOT December 12, 2022 If heading to areas with snowy or icy conditions, ADOT says the best way to remain safe is to be prepared:Anne Simmons is a digital content producer for KGUN 9.
