An icy morning had motorists slipping and sliding across our region of the state Wednesday morning. There were several crashes in the early hours, and officials are urging caution.

Bridges, always the first to ice over, were the focal points of this morning's motor mishaps, leading to several fender-benders and some minor injuries.

Roads in Old Town, LaGrange, Bangor, and Brewer were closed for a time, including the Interstate in Bangor, due to black ice crating hazardous conditions.

As of 7:30 Wednesday morning, all roads have been cleared for traffic, though commuters are still being cautioned.
