5 Tips to Keep You From Slipping Up When Driving This Winter

Icy, snowy and slushy roads are a contributing factor to hundreds of Pennsylvania car crashes each year. But an even larger factor is that some drivers make negligent decisions and do not change their driving behaviors with the road conditions, which could lead to a catastrophic Pennsylvania or New Jersey car wreck.

If you have been injured in a Pennsylvania or New Jersey car crash because of another driver’s negligent driving decisions, you need to order a FREE copy of How to Maximize Your Pennsylvania Car Accident Case Before an Insurance Company Takes Advantage of You, written by the New Jersey injury lawyers at Saile & Saile.

Before you head out onto the roadways this winter, you need to remember some winter driving safety tips. By taking the proper preparations, you could drastically decrease your likelihood of being involved in a Philadelphia car accident.

Check your tread and make sure it is a minimum of 1/8-inch. Cold weather reduces tire pressure, so check and readjust your tire pressure frequently.
Clear snow and ice from your windows, lights, hood and roof before driving.
Check washer fluid levels and make sure your reservoir is filled with washer fluid – not water.
Use your headlights during inclement weather so that other drivers can see you better.
Slow down when driving on slick roadways. Remember that the posted speed limits are for dry pavement, so adjust your speed with the weather conditions.

Regardless of how prepared you may be, it is not always possible to avoid a Pennsylvania or New Jersey auto accident. If you or someone you love has been seriously injured in a New Jersey or Pennsylvania car wreck, contact a Philadelphia personal injury attorney at Saile & Saile to schedule FREE consultation to talk about your rights to compensation following a serious accident.
