As the weather warms up and schools go on break, Florida’s highways see a massive influx of travelers. While Spring Break is a time for relaxation, the increased traffic significantly raises the risk of serious motor vehicle accidents. At The Injury Advocates, we want you to enjoy the season, but we also want you to be prepared for the hazards that come with crowded roads.
Spring Break brings a specific set of dangers to our streets:
- Inexperienced Drivers: Many travelers are younger drivers who may not be familiar with Florida’s high-speed interchanges or sudden spring rain showers.
- Distracted Driving: Visitors navigating via GPS or groups of friends in a car can lead to a dangerous lack of focus on the road.
- Impaired Driving: Unfortunately, Spring Break often involves increased alcohol consumption. Drunk driving remains one of the leading causes of fatal accidents during March and April.
If you are involved in an accident with a tourist or an out-of-state driver, the legal process can become complicated quickly. Dealing with out-of-state insurance policies and determining jurisdiction requires a steady legal hand.
