Steer Clear of Danger During Major Storms STORMY ROADS AHEAD
Download These Books Today ! YOUR LEGAL RESOURCE Driving defensively is always a wise practice, but it is especially important during major storms. In a rush to escape, other motorists may drive recklessly or be distracted. Try to keep a five-second gap between you and the vehicle in front of you. After the car ahead passes a certain point in the road, five seconds should elapse before you reach the same point. Check your mirrors and blind spot frequently for other motorists speeding or changing lanes. We are in the midst of hurricane season here in Florida, and I hope we aren’t hit by a major storm. However, in the spirit of readiness, here are a few basic safety rules to keep in mind if you are on the road during a severe storm. We see many drivers making similar mistakes in these high-stress situations. Traffic signals often go dark during power outages, and drivers who fail to notice may come speeding through intersections. Our firm has handled many personal injury cases involving collisions caused by this kind of negligent driving.
Keep a firm grip on the wheel. Winds must reach 74 mph before a storm is classified as a hurricane, so staying on the road can be a challenge. While this may seem self- evident, handling your cellphone or turning to check on children in the back seat can leave you at risk of losing control of your vehicle during sudden gusts of high wind. Heavy commercial vehicles are especially vulnerable, so keep as safe a distance from them as possible. Finally, don’t try to drive through high water. Your car can be swept off the road by even a foot of moving water, and driving through it can cause irreversible damage to your vehicle. As we move through this season of unpredictable weather, don’t hesitate to call us for advice on any accident or personal injury damage you may sustain. We are here to help.
