Roads & Travel

• Winter Driving
Motorists are reminded to follow Michigan's Basic Speed Law, which requires them to drive at a "careful and prudent" speed in all conditions and which allows them to be able to stop within the clear distance ahead. In winter, it may mean driving slower than the posted speed limit.

As Michigan's winter season unfolds, turn to the Roads & Travel page for information to help motorists get through the storm.
