Stay at least 10–15 car lengths (or 200 feet) behind operating snow plows, as they create low-visibility snow clouds and have massive blind spots. Never pass a plow on the right, as wings can extend over lanes, and only pass on the left if completely safe. #BeWinterReady
With night time dropping temps and dry conditions, our Brine units are out treating #BCHwys. Drive to the conditions, reduce speed and open up following distance. We all want to get to our destination safely.

Expect wet driving conditions throughout our #BCHwys. Wet roads & gray conditions do not always make for ideal driving. Increase stopping distance & reduce speed.
Lets arrive safely to our destination.
