Officials are warning Americans to stay safe on the roads on April 8th when the solar eclipse passes.

Ohio’s State Patrol warned, “We are predicted to see somewhere between 125 thousand to five hundred thousand additional folks come into the state. It’s important to remember there are already 7.2 million Ohioans in the path of totality living there already.”

Officials are asking that you come early and leave late to see the eclipse, make sure you have a full tank of gas or that your EV is charged, brings snacks and water and most importantly, don’t drive while wearing your eclipse glasses.

You’re also asked not to pull over onto the side of the road to watch the eclipse.
