Pedestrians Have the Right of Way: 1 of 5 Rules Dallas Drivers Shouldn’t Forget

02/28/2013 // Dallas, Texas, US // 1-800-Car-Wreck // 1-800-Car-Wreck // (press release)

Dallas drivers face a number of potential hazards in their commute day-to-day. Although many issues that lead to an accident are unforeseeable for drivers, there are safety precautions that can be taken to help drivers avoid becoming involved in an accident caused by things such as excessive speed or distracted driving. The Dallas car accident lawyers of 1-800-Car-Wreck have outlined the following five rules drivers should always remember while on the road.

Pedestrians have the right of way – Pedestrians have the right of way in crosswalks and areas designated for them, but drivers should also apply this rule for other areas as well to avoid pedestrian accidents. Even if one feels a pedestrian should not be walking in a roadway at a given time, it is never appropriate to act in a manner that could lead to one becoming hurt.

Yielding rules apply to multiple circumstances – Yielding to traffic is not only necessary in the event that a sign is instructing one to do so, but also in other circumstances such as pulling out onto a street from a parking space. Always keep defensive driving in mind.

Other factors besides the “speed limit” should be considered for choosing your driving speed – Just because a sign says the speed limit is 75, doesn’t mean it is appropriate to drive at that rate under all circumstances. Weather conditions, construction work on highways, and other factors may make it necessary to slow down one’s speed significantly to ensure the safety of others as well as their own.

Distracted driving comes in all forms – Using a cell phone, texting, eating, putting on makeup, and playing with the radio are among the list of a number of driver distractions that have lead to numerous fatal accidents. Distracted driving in any form is never a safe idea.

Always drive behind others at a safe following distance – Follow at a safe driving distance at all times. Tailgating a driver can have disastrous consequences if one has to make an emergency stop.
