Despite improvements in conditions, MDOT warns that hazardous driving conditions persist in the affected coastal counties. The agency advises safe driving practices, including slowing down, being cautious near shaded areas, and avoiding distractions. For updates, visit GoMDOT.com/winter or follow MDOT on social media.
