Motor vehicle collisions
Chatham-Kent Police Service officials allege: Six motor vehicle collisions were reported yesterday, in Chatham-Kent.
Being a safe and responsible driver takes a combination of knowledge, skill and attitude.
To begin, you must know the traffic laws and driving practices that help traffic move safely.
Breaking these “rules of the road” is the major cause of collisions.
Traffic laws are made by federal, provincial and municipal governments, and police from each level can enforce them.
If you break a traffic law, you may be fined, sent to jail or lose your driver’s licence.
If you get caught driving while your licence is suspended, your vehicle may be impounded.
But you need to do more than just obey the rules.
You must care about the safety of others on the road.
Everyone is responsible for avoiding collisions.
Even if someone else does something wrong, you may be found responsible for a collision if you could have done something to avoid it.
