Wet leaves don't look dangerous.
That's exactly why they're easy to underestimate. 🍂
Colorado State Patrol warns that wet leaves can make the road slippery — similar to driving on ice — while also covering lane markings, potholes and parts of the pavement.

Slow down and give the car in front of you more room.
Simple, but easy to forget when you're focused on the view.
Save this before your next Colorado fall drive.
