Steps You Can Take to Stay Safe on the Roads
The holidays are upon us and that typically means more traffic on the roads. Whether you’re visiting family, attending a holiday event or going to a party, you want to take some simple precautions to maximize your safety on the roadways in Maryland this holiday season:
- Take your time—Plan ahead, so that you have plenty of time to get where you’re going without driving too fast or rolling through a few corners.
- Buckle up—Seat belts make a big difference in a collision. It only takes a second to dramatically increase your safety.
- Make certain you maintain your vehicle—Don’t drive in winter weather on poor tires. Make certain your brakes are in top shape and don’t run the risk of a breakdown.
- Know where you’re going—Many accidents are caused when drivers are unfamiliar with the roads
- Don’t drink and drive—If you want to enjoy some Christmas cheer, have a designated driver
- Stay off the mobile devices while driving—Distracted driving is a virtual epidemic…don’t catch the bug!
