\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAutostrade Alto Adriatico encourages drivers to adopt safe and responsible driving behavior in full compliance with traffic regulations. When traveling on the motorway, it is especially important to be familiar with the Highway Code rules that govern the movement of all vehicles.

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAutostrade Alto Adriatico, for its part, is committed to maintaining high safety standards for users travelling on its network, through the use of innovative materials (asphalts and safety barriers), continuous monitoring of the infrastructure (cameras, patrols, etc.), timely and accurate communication regarding disruptions and weather conditions\u2014both through the media and, above all, via the company\u2019s online portals\u2014regular and scheduled maintenance of the motorway network, and prompt emergency management with qualified internal and external resources, with the aim of minimising disruption for users and reducing environmental impact.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\tOn sections affected by roadworks lasting more than seven days, the horizontal road markings are yellow, indicating to all road users that they are travelling through a work zone and must comply with the related driving requirements\u2014first and foremost, reduced speed and the maintenance of a safe following distance.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\tWe would like to take this opportunity to remind drivers that, when passing through work zones, the speed to be maintained is the one indicated by the signage displayed along the section being travelled. This speed limit is established on the basis of the safety conditions of the specific stretch of road to which the restriction applies.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tThe golden rules for safe driving<\/b>
\n\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n
\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\tSafety on the motorway depends on informed choices and responsible behaviour. For this reason, Autostrade Alto Adriatico has compiled a set of Golden Rules to help you travel safely and prevent hazardous situations.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLearn about the importance of checking your vehicle before setting off, keeping a safe following distance, and adopting the correct manoeuvres in case of rain, fog or emergencies. Knowing how to react in the event of an accident or adverse conditions can make all the difference.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTyre pressure must be measured when the tyres are cold. To find the correct pressure\u2014which varies depending on the type of tyres and vehicle\u2014you should refer to the instructions provided by the vehicle manufacturer. Always remember to check the pressure of the spare tyre as well. Check the wear of the vehicle\u2019s tyres and of any towed vehicles (caravans, trailers, auxiliary carts).<\/span>
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>With the correct tyre pressure, the risk of blowouts is reduced, grip and braking performance on wet surfaces improve, fuel consumption decreases, and tyre life increases. Travel safety also depends on proper vehicle equipment. Having snow chains on board or winter tyres fitted, and being equipped with ABS or other control systems, significantly enhances safety. <\/p>\n
