Fall Safety Tips For Car Drivers
Fall weather can rapidly change from warm to cold and everything in between. This can lead to hazardous road conditions such as icy or slippery roads. Avoid careless mistakes on these roads by driving slowly and braking gently when driving on an overpass or under bridges, as these roads may be the most dangerous during these times.
Days also get shorter during the fall season, so make sure your headlights are clean and in proper working order. Make sure to watch for pedestrians as they may be hidden during the dark and look out for children during early morning drives. If you are in an area heavy with deer, also watch for them as this is a popular time for deer mating.
Watch out for leaves as well, as they can lead to slippery roads. Do not park on top of leaves as this can also cause a fire due to your vehicle's exhaust system. Early morning fall fog or afternoon fall glares can also lead to hazardous driving conditions, so be extra careful during these times.
