Car Accident Caused by Bad Weather

Were you in a car accident caused by weather conditions?

In the rainy city of Seattle, a common excuse that drivers tell officers is that the weather conditions ‘made it impossible for me to stop in time causing me to hit the car ahead’. While this may be true, you are still held responsible.

If you are going to be a Seattleite, you need to drive like a Seattleite! If it is raining, do not drive close to the person in front of you – common sense. If you are feeling uncertain or unconfident, there is certainly nothing wrong with slowing down and going a few miles under the speed limit.
You need to remember that even if the weather is to blame for a car accident, you are still liable for hitting someone. I know we all think we are confident drivers, but you need to drive as weather conditions will permit.
