KPP Bolesławiec:

During the past weekend, police officers also carried out a number of other activities: they secured a bicycle rally in Ocice and looked after the safety of participants at the municipal harvest festival held in Warta Bolesławiecka. They guarded the site where an unexploded ordnance was discovered in Osiecznica Commune and searched for a 23-year-old who had still not contacted his family.

And adds:

We remind everyone of the absolute ban on driving after consuming alcohol, as well as the need to obey traffic regulations and adjust speed to the prevailing conditions. Frequent rainfall and falling leaves can make the road surface slippery, so it is advisable to slow down and remain focused while travelling.
