Driving Tips for Fall Weather

Posted on Friday, October 2nd, 2020 at 8:21 pm

As the Coronavirus travel restrictions are loosening, more and more people are driving to destinations throughout the United States while many people are still fearful to fly. With more people on the road, come more car, truck, motorcycle and tractor-trailer accidents. As you and your family travel on the roads during the upcoming fall months, remember to check the air pressure in your tires and be sure that your windshield washer fluid is topped off. Many car accidents are caused by simple things that we can do to prevent careless driving. For example, over-inflated or under-inflated tires may cause you to hydroplane on wet or icy roads. Inability to see out of your windshield can hinder your driving performance. Frequent usage of your windshield wiper fluid to clean your windshield may help you be a better driver as you will be better able to see any obstacles or objects in the road.

Always be on the lookout for 18-wheelers also. They have huge blind spots and seeing your car is more difficult when you have lights that are burned out on your car. Be sure to examine all of your exterior lights to ensure that they are working properly. We have all seen “that guy” driving at night with no lights on or with no brake lights. You do not want to be “that guy.” Before leaving on any road trip, be sure have check all your turn signals and brake lights. Also check the lights on the sides of your vehicle to ensure that they are operational. All of these things may help you avoid a car accident.

As the weather conditions change, so do the road conditions. Be sure to check your tire depths and make sure they have at least 5/32 of an inch of tread. Any less than that could cause your car to hydroplane or lose traction in the wet. Any tire store will be happy to measure the depth of your tread at no charge. Remember, the only thing keeping your car on the road is the tires and while your car may be in great condition, it is only as good as its tires. If you or a loved one is ever involved in a car accident, remember that the Gold Law Firm is here for you.

In January, 2020, a friend drove me to see my doctor since I was unable to drive myself. The vehicle accident occurred... just after we left the doctor's office. Both the car in which I was a passenger and the SUV that broadsided us were totalled. Five people, including me, were taken to the ER by ambulance. My injuries included two leg fractures that went through my knee joint, a fractured vertebrae, a bladder injury, and horrible seatbelt bruises. A few days into my 22-day hospitalization, I was able to use my cellphone to find an attorney. I googled "personal injury attorneys" and quickly saw that David Gold was the only one on the long list with a five star rating. After reading every single review, I called Gold Law Firm. David came to the hospital that very afternoon. He listened to my account of the wreck, asked and answered questions, and told me his plan of action. While he was confident in his expertise, he was not arrogant or pushy. He was realistic and made no grandiose promises, and he was a genuinely nice person, as well. I retained him to represent me, and he immediately began working on my case.Having never been involved in a vehicle accident before, I was quite anxious for a few weeks, worried that I would lose my home and be forced to file bankruptcy as a result of the medical bills that continued to climb, but David patiently addressed my concerns. The staff at Gold Law Firm were exceptionally helpful, too. David kept me informed as each step transpired, and was easily accessible by phone if I had questions. He negotiated with Medicare, the car insurance company, and dozens of health providers, as well as handling the piles of statements and endless paperwork so that I didn't have to focus on anything but recovering from my injuries. Even with Covid-19 slowing the world to a crawl with closings and quarantines, and the six long months of my recovery entailing $115,000 in medical expenses, David settled my case with the driver's car insurance company for policy limits eight months from the time of the accident.In the end, I received over $40,000 in excess of my medical bills and legal fees. David's knowledge, experience, negotiating skill, and integrity are truly exceptional. I recommend him as being top notch in his field.read more

What Our Clients Are Saying

David Gold and his associates were there for me all the way. From day 1..they were working for me. I can be a bit of a pain sometimes, lol, but I was hurt and extremely upset with my insurance company. They handled them like pros, did not take 1st offer and called me with all offers until they believed we had the best one we could get. I was very satisfied with this, also grateful to the doctor he referred me to for my injuries. I spoke to him today and he gave me some great advice on another case that the lawyer who was recommended to me completely failed at his responsibilities. Thank you Mr. Gold for your offer to help again..Im kicking myself I didn’t call you 1st. I had a horrible concussion and injuries and wasn’t thinking right.
Gold Law Firm will handle you and your case with the respect You and your case deserve. They’re bull dogs and do not stop until you are happy with their work and your settlement. Great communication amongst the whole staff! You will not regret hiring them.

I own a support business so know all the key Memphis players in the PI-Auto negligence arena. Mr. Gold stands out. He has pluck, intellect, and street smarts. He works hard for his clients. He will go to trial. Insurance companies know those lawyers who don’t and shave their settlement offers accordingly. Not Mr. Gold.
