Common Causes of Car Accidents #6: Tailgating.

Leave tailgating for Buffalo Bills games, not the road.

Driving too close to the vehicle ahead puts you at a greater risk of not stopping in time if traffic slows or even stops, especially at high speeds on the highway.

While it’s easy to stick close, try to leave two full car lengths between your car and the next. This gives you more visibility of the road ahead, (especially if the vehicle in front is larger), and gives you extra time to slow down or even stop without causing a rear-end collision.

Injured because another driver didn’t slow down or stop in time to prevent an accident? You may be entitled to compensation. Call Multerer Law Firm at 716-882-8828 for your FREE case evaluation.
