I found a very informative article on car accident prevention.  Almost daily I see people doing the following mistakes on the road, I’m sure you have too.

Just this morning I saw one woman putting on her make up on the way to work, not paying attention to what was around her.  She kept drifting over the lane she was in causing other drivers to swerve in the other direction.  I kept a safe distance behind her! This is a prime example on how not to prevent a car accident.

This past weekend I had car accident. Not sure how i could have prevented it. A guy hit me in a parking lot while I was sitting in my car.  He wasn’t paying attention when he was backing up and backed right into me.  Now, any responsible driver would have gotten out and assessed any possible damage they might have caused and exchanged information.  NOPE!  This guy got scared and took off, knowing I was still in my vehicle when he backed into me.  I got out of my car to see the damage, but the first thing I took note of was the type of vehicle he was driving and his license plate number, just in case he decided to take off.  The police showed up, but told me there was not any damage done to my vehicle, so they weren’t going to do anything about it.  It was 11pm at night and I couldn’t see any damage myself, plus my car hasn’t had a good bath in weeks.  The next day I checked out my car again just to see if i could see any damage in the day light.  You could see fresh scratches in the paint of my bumper.  I wasn’t THAT worried about it since I work at the best auto body shop in Seattle, but still mad that I was hit and the fact that it could have been avoided if he had been paying attention to what was around him, and he had car accident prevention knowledge.
