Rain increases the chances of car accidents.

The DMV is expecting heavy rainfall for the remainder of the day and here are some things to be aware of:

  • Weather conditions contribute to over 70% of car accidents.
  • It is harder to drive in the rain due to obstructed visibility.
  • Oil build-up on roads cause pavements to be slippery.
  • Wet pavements cause cars to hydroplane.
  • Most people don’t slow down when driving in the rain. 

The takeaway is slow down, maintain a safe distance, and avoid abrupt braking if you can help it.   If you have been injured in a car accident and need legal representation, Omena Law Firm is here to help you. For more information give us a call at 301-363-1604.
