What are the Most Common Causes of Automobile Accidents?
- Distracted Driving – Distracted drivers have been the leading cause of car accidents for years. Drivers get distracted by being on their phone, eating, reading and many more things. The list of distractions is endless. If you find that something needs to be done right away, pull off the road first before trying to do it while driving.
- Drunk Driving – When alcohol is involved, drivers lose their ability to function properly. It is best to find a sober ride if you plan to drink at all. This will help keep you and the people around you out of danger.
- Weather – Rain and ice are common causes of car wrecks because it causes the roads to become slippery which makes it harder for drivers to control their vehicles. If the weather is bad, take things slow or try to stay off the road until it clears up.
