Urgent Alert: Donegal Gardai Warn Motorists of Hazardous Roads
URGENT UPDATE: Gardaí in Donegal are issuing an immediate warning to motorists as road conditions deteriorate significantly today, November 20, 2025. Drivers are urged to exercise extreme caution due to poor road surfaces that pose serious risks.
Authorities report that the roads are particularly hazardous this morning. Motorists are advised to reduce speed and maintain increased distances between vehicles to ensure safety. The warning comes amid reports of harsh weather affecting road conditions across the region.
In their advisory, Gardaí recommend several critical safety measures: use the highest gear possible to prevent wheel spin, select a low gear when navigating downhill, especially through bends, and activate dipped headlights in heavy snow. Drivers should also remain vigilant for vulnerable road users, allowing ample space when overtaking.
The situation is developing quickly, and conditions may worsen as the day progresses. Gardaí emphasize the importance of adhering to these safety guidelines to prevent accidents and ensure the well-being of all road users.
Motorists are reminded that taking these precautions can significantly reduce the risk of collisions. This is especially crucial as emergency services remain on high alert to respond to any incidents that may arise.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Continued weather updates and further advisories from Gardaí are expected throughout the day. Residents and travelers in Donegal should stay informed and prepare for potential road closures or additional warnings as conditions change.
Stay safe and drive cautiously—your safety and the safety of others depend on it.
