'Vindhviður' refers to sudden, strong wind gusts. They are dangerous because they can rapidly change direction and intensity, making it difficult to control a vehicle, especially high-profile vehicles, and increasing the risk of being blown off the road.
It is strongly recommended not to drive campervans and motorhomes if wind speeds exceed 20 m/s (72 km/h or 44 mph), as these high-profile vehicles are extremely vulnerable to strong gusts.
If you encounter a sudden strong crosswind, reduce your speed, maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel, and be prepared to make small, corrective steering adjustments into the wind. If the gusts are severe, it's safest to pull over in a safe, sheltered location.
The 'door-damage protocol' means holding car doors firmly when opening and closing them in windy conditions. This is crucial in Iceland to prevent strong gusts from violently ripping doors open, causing damage to the vehicle or injuring occupants.
You can find reliable information on current wind and road conditions in Iceland on official websites like Umferdin.is, safetravel.is, and Vedur.is (for weather warnings) before setting off on your journey.
