Driving speed limit during fog

Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Kader said, all vehicles have to drive at a maximum of 50km per hour in foggy weather.

The announcement came after a meeting of the National Road Safety Council (NRSC), chaired by Minister Obaidul Quader, held in the ministry this morning.

He 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.

Recently, nine people, including a minister’s son have been killed in two accidents amid dense fog on the Bangabandhu Bridge in Tangail.
