On the road, you face many different hazards. Sadly, there are far too many negligent drivers who get behind the wheel and place other lives in danger. From using drugs or alcohol while behind the wheel to ignoring traffic signs and going over the speed limit, irresponsible driving takes on many forms. Worse, these behaviors can be even more dangerous during poor weather conditions, such as times when ice is on the road.
