Darke County, OH – Drivers across Darke County are being urged to use extreme caution Monday as slick and icy roads have caused dozens of crashes and slide-offs throughout the area.
According to the Darke County Sheriff’s Office, nearly 35 crashes and roadway slide-offs were reported as of Monday morning, November 10, 2025. Officials say road conditions remain hazardous, with drivers facing poor traction and limited visibility in some rural areas.
The sheriff’s office advised motorists to reduce speed, increase following distance, and avoid unnecessary travel until conditions improve. Crews are reportedly working to treat major routes, but deputies say many secondary roads remain especially dangerous.
No major injuries have been reported so far, but authorities emphasize that conditions could worsen through the day if temperatures remain near freezing.
Residents are encouraged to check local traffic alerts and weather updates before heading out.
