According to the information given by Insurance.com, July, August, and September are the most popular months for automobile accidents. You may ask why. Well, this is because these months are when the summer traffic gets at its peak and with many vehicles on the road, there are plenty of chances to actually meet accidents.
Another reason is that during the summer there are more hours of daylight which travelers and motorists do take full advantage of up until they become truly exhausted thus leading to lack of concentration on the road ahead. Exhaustion also causes a much slower reaction time for any situations on the road.
Here are some tips to much avoid summer accidents:
CHECK: all parts of your vehicle especially the air pressure and the fluid levels
REPLACE: worn out parts like the air filter
OBSERVE: speed limit and your body’s driving limits
PLAN: your itinerary and direction weeks before the trip
TAKE: breaks especially when needed
BRING: first aid kits, roadside assistance kits, auto insurance proof, emergency phone numbers and food
