During the summer months, travel on America’s highways and in the skies
increases substantially. Because there are so many vehicles on the road, the
number of accidents also increase. When motor vehicle accidents happen, people
on vacation and those commuting to work, driving home or making their way to
recreational options all experience headaches.
When a car accident occurs in the summer, the experience of a personal injury lawyer can help get you back on the road to recovery from injuries and
property damage.
Teen Drivers Are Often Involved
Because school is not in session, teen drivers spend more
time enjoying themselves on the road. Due to inexperience, immaturity inherent
in their age, peer pressure and lack of knowledge in driving, teen auto accidents
frequently occur in the summer, when teens are supposed to enjoy a carefree
life.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has
indicated August is the most dangerous month for any driving in the United
States. Loss of vehicle control leads to serious collisions, such as head-on
accidents with other drivers and passengers in their vehicles. Extensive
property damage can occur when a driver loses control of his or her vehicle and
collides with objects.
