Keeping yourself, your passengers and other drivers safe is one of your main responsibilities when you are on the road. The best way to accomplish that is to follow these safe driving tips.

Heed the rules of the road. Accidents are often caused because of speeding or ignoring traffic signs or signals. Be sure to follow all laws when driving to help prevent accidents.

Avoid driving in inclement weather. Accidents are more common when roads are wet or icy or when visibility is reduced, so try to avoid driving in the snow, ice or fog.

Keep your car maintained. Tire blowouts cause accidents, as do headlights, taillights, turn signals and windshield wipers that don't work. Keeping your car in good working order will increase safety and help reduce accidents.

Following these tips won't prevent every accident, but it will reduce the chances of one and keep you and others safer on the road.
