Safe Communities of Wood County February 2019 Press Release

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.

    of the very best in its niche. Fantastic blog!

    this.

  24. I do not know if it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering issues with your blog.

    running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and
    let me know if this is happening to them as well?
    This may be a problem with my browser because I’ve had this happen before.

  25. After I originally left a comment I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new
    comments are added- checkbox and from now on every time a comment is added I receive
    4 emails with the exact same comment. Perhaps there is an easy
    method you can remove me from that service? Appreciate it!
