All vehicles on the highways must limit their speed to 50km/h in foggy weather, Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader has said.
“Drivers must limit their maximum speed to between 40 and 50km/h during fog. During dense fog, they should not drive on the highways,” he said, while speaking to journalists at his Secretariat office on Tuesday morning.
The minister said the guidance was being given to curb road accidents during the winter season.
He further said: “The National Road Traffic and Transport Act will be placed in the next session of parliament. Hopefully, the law will help prevent road accidents.”
