Car accidents on rural roads and compensation claims

During holiday periods, many drivers venture out onto country roads they are not familiar with.  Car accidents that happen in rural areas can be much more serious than those which happen in town.  The reason for this is, due to high traffic density in busy areas, you are much more likely to suffer a minor accident such as a shunt, than a serious accident at speed.   

Rural roads encourage drivers to put their foot down and drive faster than normal.  As the road may be unfamiliar to the driver, he may find himself on top of twists, turns and narrowing roads which were not expected. Trees and hedges can also reduce visibility. High speed and reduced reaction time can result in fatal and serious car accidents in rural areas. 

As personal injury solicitors for Preston, Bury, Colne, Nelson, Burnley, Accrington, Liverpool, Manchester, Wigan, Blackpool and all northwest towns in England, Farnworth Rose Personal Injury Solicitors are well aware of the dangers posed by drivers in unfamiliar rural areas.  Young drivers particularly think it is safe to far exceed the speed limit on rural roads, as they think there is less chance of being caught and less chance of having an accident. Wrong!

The chance of having a road accident on a rural road is increased because of excess speed, concealed entrances and hidden hedges, blind bends, animals wandering into the road, limited or no street lighting and pedestrians or cyclists walking along narrow lanes who may be unsighted until you turn a corner.

It is essential your headlights are working properly before taking a journey into the countryside.  If you are a pedestrian or cyclist, wear reflective clothing wherever possible.
