Top Causes of Summer Auto Accidents |
||||
|
Summer is a time for teenagers and young adults to let loose from the stress and pressure of school, and for adult vacationers to get away from their boss and office and hit the road. However, it is important to remember that long-distance trips in the car come with new and different dangers. |

Some of the top causes of summer auto accidents include:
• Teen drivers –Teen drivers don’t always know what to do when they hit the road. Inexperience and taking chances, as well as driving under the influence are all causes of accidents involving teens.
• Drunk Driving – With more teens, college kids and even adults out on the town partying during the summer, there are more drunk drivers on the road. Summer holidays are especially high times for drunk drivers to be on the road.
• More cars are on the road – Many families and senior citizens take vacations between June and August, with some hooking up RVs and trailers to travel cross-country. Lots of cars on the road statistically means more car accidents.
• Presence of bicycles and motorcycles on the road – During the warmer months, more bicycles and motorcycles are on the road. Drivers must watch for bicyclists and motorcyclists in addition to other vehicles on the road.
• Speeding – Those open summer roads without worrying about ice or snow can seem tempting to fly down. However, one-third of all traffic fatalities are due to speeding.
• Road construction – Summer time is the time for road work because the weather is usually nice. However, road construction zones often causes traffic accidents because people are unfamiliar with either the area or just driving in these zones.
