Castilla-La Mancha ended the weekend with a positive road safety statistic: zero fatalities on its roads. Meanwhile, the State Meteorological Agency forecasts a temperature rise for this Monday that will affect all provinces in the region. Maximum temperatures are expected to reach warmer values, marking the start of a week with spring-like weather and clear skies.
Smart asphalt and meteorology as allies in prevention 🚗
The combination of good weather and optimal road conditions reduces risks behind the wheel. Traffic monitoring systems and temperature sensors on the asphalt allow anticipating changes in grip. In Castilla-La Mancha, the smart road network integrates data from weather stations to adjust speed limits and alert drivers about possible ice patches or slippery roads, improving preventive safety.
The sun that heats the asphalt and cools (or heats) the nerves ☀️
With the rise in temperatures, drivers can set aside the fear of morning frost and focus on another classic: the debate over whether air conditioning consumes more gasoline than rolling down the windows. Of course, at least this Monday they won't have to deal with ice on the windshield, so the biggest danger will be forgetting sunglasses at home and having to drive with the sun visor down.
