Traffic accidents rise as temperatures drop

Door County traffic accidents were trending up yesterday, with the latest report showing 15 incidents involving traffic related accidents, with three of those accidents taking place on Highway 57 and County Highway H. Weather and road conditions may get worse in the coming days with the weather forecast projecting high temperatures under 20 degrees. With the recent snowfall melting these temperatures would mean roads could get icy and slippery. Door County Sheriff's Department Chief Deputy Pat McCarty reminds drivers to be safe and take the proper safety precautions when heading out on potentially dangerous roads. When driving on roads that may be covered with snow or ice, things such as reducing speed, braking earlier to avoid sliding into other traffic, and only traveling if it is necessary can be great ways to reduce potential accidents.
