Road Traffic Accidents in snow

18 12 2009

With the bad weather suddenly hitting many parts of the country recently, for those not used to driving in snowy conditions, it always worth remembering that your car will have a mind of its own and behave quite differently than you may expect.

Keep a safe distance from other vehicles especially lorries which have tendency to jacknife, brake slowly and try to avoid hills.

If you are a pedestrian, be wary of drivers losing control of their vehicles and if you go to the aid of a drive who has got stuck, make sure you don’t injure yourself in the process or indavertantly push the vehicle you are helping into another vehicle or solid object. You might be held liable!
