Another holiday season is here along with all the traffic. Add in the snow, ice and precipitation and things could get messy out there. Damian Kidd, from the Advocates, had a few tips to avoid accidents according to patterns they have seen from drivers.
Patterns of Bad Driving
-Texting
-Traveling in a hurry
-Not stopping properly at intersections or hurrying through stoplights
Texting still accounts for a good number of accidents.
Slowing down and just focusing on reaching your destination might be a simple tip, but it may save you from many accidents that happen around this time of year. The weather combined with lots of traffic makes for a worse equation.
What to do in the case of an accident
