The Parsippany-Troy Hills Police Department responded to 16 vehicle collisions in 13 hours on Tuesday, many triggered by rain conditions.

With more rain expected today, the department reminds motorists to:

  • keep wipers and headlights on.
  • be prepared for the possibility of slipping on oil-slicked roads,
  • allow for sufficient stopping space, and
  • do not follow the vehicle in front too closely.
