Preventing Personal Injuries On The Roadways This Holiday Season

On Behalf of | Dec 20, 2018 | Injuries |

The Holidays are such a wonderful time of year for spending time with close friends and family. However, it can also be a particularly stressful time of year to travel on the roads. Here are a few safety tips to minimize the risk of personal injuries if you are out on the roads this Holiday season:

· Do not follow other vehicles too closely.

· Make sure to observe the speed limit.

· If you are near a shopping mall or another area where there are a lot of pedestrians, then make sure to be alert for distracted pedestrians that are busy shopping and not paying attention to cars.

· Make sure your vehicle is winter-proofed and ready for snow if you are traveling outside of the state of South Carolina for the Holidays.

· Plan for a designated driver if you are going to be out drinking during the Holidays.

· If you are traveling with your children, make sure they are buckled up and in the proper car seats or booster seats.

· Make sure to take turns driving if you find yourself on a long road trip and avoid driving if you get too drowsy.

Of course, these tips cannot completely safeguard you from personal injuries caused by someone else’s negligence.
