The holidays are a joyous time of year, but we’ve all read unfortunate
stories about that joy quickly turning to tragedy as a result of an accident.
As fulfilling as the holidays can be, the hard truth is that, when it comes to
travel, they can also be quite dangerous. With more cars on the road and the
weather turning treacherous it’s important to remember that, while you’re
enjoying special occasions with friends and close family, to also stay safe. As
a vehicle
accident lawyer, we care about your
safety here at the law offices of Burg and Brock. To that end, here are a few
things to keep in mind to avoid personal
injury this holiday season.
Keep your eyes on the weather forecast. Though it’s tempting
to dismiss inclement weather as an East Coast problem, even residents of
Southern California aren’t completely safe from poor conditions. November and
December can mean rainfall for Angelinos, and the roads will be adversely
affected. Make sure to be weary of poor conditions.
Statistically speaking, the most dangerous road condition is
other drivers. Defensive driving is always a great skill to practice, but it
particularly comes in handy during the busy holiday travel season. Stay
vigilant, and keep your eyes out for erratic behavior from other vehicles
because drunk driving is going to go up. Take care when you’re on the road, and
if the unexpected does happen make sure you contact a top attorney
in Los Angeles like Burg and Brock to protect your rights.
