BAD WEATHER CAR ACCIDENT
Snowy roads can cause motor vehicle injuries

Bad weather car accident lawsuit review at no cost.

Snowy roads present difficult driving conditions. Careless motorists are a particular risk to responsible drivers in icy and snowy conditions. Bad weather leads to serious car accidents that can cause not only physical injury, but financial loss as well.

Weitz & Luxenberg urges all drivers that when traveling in bad weather:

  • Wait until you can safely pull over before answering or using your cell phone.  Even when weather is not an issue, distracted drivers are responsible for many serious accidents.
  • Be on the alert for unexpected road hazards.  Snow-covered roads can hide hidden dangers, such as ice, pot holes or other hazards.
  • Be extremely cautious in traffic and remain aware of drivers in the cars above, behind and beside you.
  • If the safe driving rules for icy roads:  If you skid, steer in the direction of the skid and tap the brake pedal lightly.  Hitting your brakes hard will cause your front wheels to lock, increasing the risk of a serious accident.  It is vital that the younger drivers in your family are taught this important skill, particularly if they have little to no experience driving in snowy conditions.
