Warn motorists drive carefully on state highways
Pierre Feb 8. Motorists are cautioned to drive carefully on state highways and use them only when necessary as weather conditions delay snow drift clearance. D A McKinnon maintenance engineer says plows have been withdrawn until safer conditions permit effective work. Snow drifts rapidly reaccumulate, increasing danger as gravel is exposed on snow packed ditches prompting vehicles into ditches. Plows and crews will resume clearance when weather permits, noting winds hinder rather than aid driving public.
