Rain Hazards
Driving during a heavy rainstorm can be a frightening experience. Motorists can find themselves with an extremely diminished view of the road, who they are near, and where major landmarks are located. There is also a dangerous loss of traction due to the slipperiness of the rain water on a vehicle’s tires. As a result, rain is among the most common dangers that drivers will experience on the road.
Talking with an experienced advocate can be an important way to understand how the law can protect you and your property in the event of a collision. Contact the Wausau car accident attorneys of Habush Habush & Rottier S.C. ® by calling 800-242-2874 today.
Safety Measures

- Keep windshield wipers in good conditions.
- Turn headlights on while wipers are on.
- Brake early and slowly.
- Accelerate slowly and reduce speeds overall.
