Specialization PoorEnvironmentConditions (Weather conditions affecting driving conditions)

The type PoorEnvironmentConditions is used in events where driving conditions are affected by weather conditions. There is (as of yet) no damage or degradation of the road surface. Examples include heavy rain, strong winds, etc. In addition to the elements from the specialization Conditions, it includes the mandatory element poorEnvironmentType (which can appear more than once) and the conditionally mandatory element visibility:

Elements

An overview of elements found in every specialization of a situationRecord can be found here. In the case of the PoorEnvironmentConditions specialization, these elements are supplemented with an extra element from the Conditions specialization and the elements from PoorEnvironmentConditions itself.
