Safety measure awareness
A designated assurance
Knocks at the reckless
Road casualties are alarming
Necessary that caution
Be positively identified
Only at specified sections
One is to pass as advised
A public service to users
Wisdom comes too late
Ignored with dire consequences
Regret is the resultant take
Man and machine on icy roads
Smart and savvy take on the prompt.
