As the days grow longer and temperatures rise, May brings more than just flowers—it brings people back to the roads. Whether it’s road trips, graduation celebrations, or Memorial Day weekend travel, this time of year sees a sharp increase in vehicle traffic—and, unfortunately, accidents.
At Yomtob Collision and Customs, May is all about prevention, preparation, and peace of mind. Here’s how drivers can stay safe—and what to do if the unexpected happens.
- Watch for Spring Hazards
May driving comes with its own set of risks:
- More wildlife activity, especially in early mornings and evenings
- Rainstorms and slick roads
- Distracted drivers focused on events, vacations, or mobile devices
- Teen drivers hitting the roads after school and for prom or graduation
Staying alert, slowing down, and keeping a safe following distance can make all the difference.
- Prepare Your Vehicle
Before hitting the road this month, make sure your car is ready:
- Check tire pressure and tread
- Inspect windshield wipers
- Top off fluids (oil, brake, washer)
- Fix any lingering damage that could impact safety, like misaligned frames or broken headlights
Your Yomtob Collision team is happy to perform an inspection and make minor repairs to get your vehicle road-ready.
