Be sure that you leave plenty of distance between yourself and the vehicle in front of you, and please be patient if you are out on the roadways.
The latest traffic map for the Birmingham Metropolitan Area continues to show major delays on most of the major roadways leading into the city. For the latest on traffic and school delays, visit ABC3340.com.
