As temperatures continue to drop, you
need to keep in mind road and weather conditions while driving. Importantly,
you must be aware of other drivers on the road, and alter your driving habits
based on the conditions
We have all seen the drivers who
turn on their hazards and practically crawl down the right lane during
inclement weather. Contrarily, we have also all seen the driver who speeds and
weaves in and out of traffic. Both of which are a major hazard.
Adverse weather contributes to 28%
of all accidents and 20% of accident fatalities. The law states you have a duty
to operate your vehicle differently based on the conditions. If the weather is
bad, go slower, and keep a greater distance between you and other vehicles.
We at Portner & Shure wish you and your family a safe and warm Holiday Season.
