Safe Travels this Holiday Weekend
AAA has released its 2014 Thanksgiving Holiday Travel
Forecast and is predicting 46.3 million people will travel more than 50 miles
from their home between Wednesday, November 26th and Sunday, November
30th. This represents a 4.2 increase over 2013, most likely due to
this year’s unusually low gas prices. According to AAA, 90 percent of those
traveling over Thanksgiving Weekend will be doing so by car.
Nearly 42 million motorists on the road over the same
weekend increases risks for car accidents.
To help reduce your risk of causing an accident, the personal injury attorneys
at The Cochran Firm recommend you:
- Do not drink and drive
- Obey all traffic signs and signals
- Be conscious of weather conditions and adjust driving appropriately
- Give yourself plenty of time to reach your destination
- Drive calmly and avoid reckless or erratic behavior
- Do not text or use a cellphone while driving
- Avoid common distractions such as eating, grooming, and fiddling with GPS
If you are involved in a car accident this weekend, you will
want an experienced attorney on your side. We are here to take your case and
fight for your rights, and to help ensure you are provided the full
compensation you are due.
