How To Proceed From a San Marcos Pedestrian Crash
Driving is essential for many to move about in their lives. However, it is one of the most dangerous daily maneuvers. Thus, it is therefore important to know how to proceed in an accident.
On the AAA Foundation Website, chief executive officer Peter Kissinger repeatedly labeled the epidemic of motor vehicle-related accidents a “public health crisis.”
