Driving in Clarenville – Tips to keep you on the road.
DRIVING BY.
Clarenville is situated just minutes off the Trans-Canada Highway. This means a quick reduction in speed for highway travelling. From the intersection of Memorial Drive to Manitoba Drive, the speed is reduced from 100km to 70km.
FOG MEANS FOCUSED.
Newfoundland means fog, and Clarenville is no exception to the towns that can be hit by this extremely dangerous weather condition that is often underplayed. Drivers should slow down as driving at normal speeds in fog can be very dangerous. Slowing down means more time to react to traffic stops and potential hazards. Also, motorists should avoid using high-beam headlights in fog as fog consists of tiny water droplets that spread and reflect light. Low-beams should be used to help vehicles to be visible to one another. And last, always remain focused. Turn down the radio, stop conversations and keep attention on the road.
TAKE A CAB.
Newfoundland has severe impaired driving regulations to help keep all residents safe. As of 2017, any driver whose licence was suspended after an impaired driving conviction will be required to enter a mandatory ignition interlock program as a condition of reinstatement. As well, anyone 22 years and younger are required to maintain a zero-blood alcohol content while driving. Not a risk you want to take. There are three cab companies in Clarenville and Shoal Harbour ready to take you wherever you need to go.
