Explanation
Sign P-29: Strong crosswind
Indicates the proximity of an area where **strong wind blowing transversely** to the road is frequent. This side wind can push the vehicle and compromise its stability, especially for high-sided vehicles or those with a large side surface (lorries, buses, vans, trailers, and motorcycles).
How to proceed:
- Reduce **speed** before entering the area.
- Maintain a **firm grip on the steering wheel** and correct your trajectory smoothly.
- Increase the **safety distance** and avoid **sudden manoeuvres** and **overtaking** large vehicles.
- Pay extra attention on **bridges, viaducts, and tunnel exits**, where gusts are usually more intense.
