Kelowna RCMP are advising against icy road conditions in Kelowna.

The RCMP has responded to several motor vehicle incidents Sunday morning involving vehicles that have lost control, gone off of the road or collided with another vehicle.

Police are reminding motorists to be cautious and adjust their speed accordingly while driving on the roads as they are slippery during this time. It is also important to have the appropriate winter tires and equipment, including warm clothing.

Motorists are encouraged to slow down and take extra time getting to where you need to go safely.
