Far North Dallas Is Safe To Live But Unsafe To Drive
One of the leading causes of car accidents is distracted driving, including texting, talking on the phone, eating, or using in-car technologies while driving. When drivers divert their attention from the road, their ability to react to hazards diminishes, increasing the risk of an accident. Operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or certain medications impairs a driver's judgment, coordination, and reaction time. Impaired drivers have diminished vehicle control and are more likely to cause accidents. Reckless behaviors such as aggressive driving, tailgating, sudden lane changes, running red lights, and poor road conditions also increase the chances of accidents. Click here to read more.
