subject: 5 Things Not to Do to Avoid a Car Accident from Nissan Maryland [print this page] From the time you drive your car off the showroom floor of Nissan of Maryland, we want you to be safe! When driving around town or taking longer trips, here are 5 things NOT to do to help you avoid car accidents:
Do not speed. Driving your car too fast means you have less time to respond if something should happen. It takes your car longer to stop, and speeding can cause you to lose control of your Nissan, too. When accidents do happen with speeding cars, you can bet the damages to both the car and the people involved will be greater than a car moving slower.
Do not text or make phone calls. Even the best drivers can become distracted and cause an accident when dialing or sending a text message while driving. Do yourself and other people on the road a favor and avoid the distraction of the phone when driving.
Do not ignore traffic laws. There is a reason you're supposed to use a turn signal when changing lanes or turning onto a new road. There's a reason why you are supposed to come to a complete stop at the intersection or red light. Follow traffic laws to reduce your risks of causing an accident.
Do not forget routine car maintenance. Bring your car back to Chevy Chase Nissan dealership in Maryland for regular maintenance for tires, brakes, oil changes, and other service to avoid any mechanical failure that could result in a car accident.
Do not tailgate. Whenever you drive too close to the car in front of you, you take the chance of causing a rear ending accident.
