Jefferson City, Mo. - Missourians expect the weather to change and it appears they won't be disappointed this week. As New Year's approaches, the forecast shows colder temperatures, rain, and wet snow showers on the horizon. Weather affects traffic patterns and can make driving hazardous. Lower overnight temperatures may cause wet roadways to freeze and become slick. Troopers with the Missouri State Highway Patrol urge everyone to pay attention to weather conditions and make smart decisions regarding travel. If conditions dictate, avoid driving on Missouri's roadways. When you travel, make sure your vehicle is completely clean of snow, use your headlights to increase visibility, and reduce your speed when the roadway appears wet or snow is present. Remember: Missouri law states if you're using your windshield wipers, your headlights must be turned on. During inclement weather, driving the speed limit is not "exercising the highest degree of care." Missouri
