Watch for Impaired Drivers
The Arizona Republic reported on 8/30 that a suspect was arrested for his involvement in a fatal crash in Surprise. He was found with illegal narcotics on his person. Though it has not yet been proven that he was under the influence at the time of the crash, this kind of event only makes it more apparent that you must always be aware of your surroundings.
While driving, always watch your mirrors for erratic driving around or behind you. Changing lanes without signaling, speeding, and swerving are signs that a driver may be impaired by drugs, sleep depravation, or even by using a cell phone. Drivers who are not paying 100% attention to the road pose hazards to other drivers. Always maintain a distance from cars with drivers exhibiting this type of behavior to prevent any accidents.
