Thanksgiving Car Accidents — The Deadliest Holiday for Travel

Thanksgiving is here … bringing increased travel to virtually everyone.  According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Thanksgiving is the deadliest holiday for car accidents.  So, how can you avoid such a danger this holiday weekend? Here are a few tips to keep you and your family members safe! 

  • Defensive Driving. Stay at or slightly under the speed limit and keep a watchful eye on the road. Aggressive and distracted driving will undoubtedly increase your risk of an accident. Avoid texting and driving and be aware of the other vehicles on the road.  
  • Designated Driving. Under no circumstances should anyone get behind the wheel after drinking. However, there are high drunk driving rates and resultant accidents over the Thanksgiving holiday and holiday weekend. Make sure that you do not put yourself or anyone else in jeopardy for an injury. Select a designated driver to keep you and others on the road safe. 
  • Make Sure Your Insurance is Valid. If you are in an accident, you will want to make sure you have medical coverage, collision coverage, and especially that you have uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. Most drivers on the road have either no insurance or not enough insurance to adequately compensate accident victims for their injuries.  
  • After an Accident, Call our Car Accident Attorneys. If you are unable to avoid an accident this Thanksgiving holiday, reach out to one of our auto accident attorneys. It is important to document the facts of the accident, take pictures, or have a family member take pictures of the scene and the extent of your injuries.
