That’s it, in a few days winter will be well established. Even to tell the truth, it seems to already be there, and the temperature has gone into the negative and some regions are already under snow. Especially because Mountain law It came back into effect on November 1st, forcing drivers crossing mountainous areas to wear winter tires, chains or socks. Because snow, as beautiful as it is, is also a driving hazard. Therefore, in winter, it is necessary to exercise increased vigilance, especially during bad weather.

Watch the windshield

This is why you should be careful when cleaning your windshield before driving. This may seem obvious, but believe me, it is not for everyone. In the United States, and more specifically in Kitsap County, c Washington state, the motorist paid for his negligence. The latter really decided to drive in front of a thick layer of snow on the windshield, which blocks the view. He still made sure to remove a few centimeters so that the road could be seen. Quickly apprehended, the latter then told the police that his windscreen wiper dont work. Ridiculous excuse…

Big fine

However, and as you can imagine, this excuse was not enough to convince the police, who rightly believed that the driver could have simply used his hand. The latter then decided to impose a hefty fine of $553 (equivalent to €527) on him for careless driving. It should probably make him want to start again, although the practice can obviously be very dangerous for everyone…
