Safe Communities announced today that there have been zero fatal crashes in Wood County this year compared to zero at this time last year. Let’s keep this trend going!
Rear-end and fixed object crashes are the major causes of crashes in Wood County. Common factors that contribute to these type of collisions include:
- Aggressive or reckless driving.
- Texting and driving.
- Speeding.
- Driver fatigue.
- Tailgating.
- Negligence while driving through intersections, parking lots, and highway ramps.
- Failure to follow the rules of the road.
You can prevent these crashes by remembering these simple rules:
- Look further up the road to spot traffic stopping long before the vehicle in front of you slams on its brakes.
- Stay focused on your driving
- Leave 2-3 vehicle lengths between you and the car in front of you
- Do not drive in excess of the speed limit
- Do not drive drowsy or impaired
- If there is poor visibility, be cautious and drive within your abilities.
Let’s strive for zero fatal crashes in 2019.
