Vehicle Collisions Could Happen to Anyone

Traffic safety continues to be a life-and-death matter, yet reckless driving has not declined. One person is killed in a vehicle accident every couple of hours.

The California Office of Traffic Safety’s “Go Safely” campaign advises drivers of the following:

  • Follow the posted speed limit.
  • Slow down your speed at intersections.
  • Give pedestrians the right of way at crosswalks and unmarked corners. Be ready to stop and let those on foot cross.
  • Apply extra care in less-than-ideal driving conditions. This may include dark, foggy, or rainy weather.
  • Respect all bicyclists. Give cyclists at least three to five feet of room when passing a bike. California law requires drivers to provide a minimum of three feet of space between a vehicle and a bicycle.
  • If there is not enough space to pass a bicyclist safely, be patient and wait until you can

Driving your children to school, driving to the market, or driving to fill up on gas should not be a life-and-death matter. Even so, the likelihood of car accidents continues to rise.

Moreover, sharing the road is a shared responsibility. It is vital to keep an eye out for those who are on the road with you.
