AS THE WEATHER WARMS UP, SUMMER SAFETY IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR DRIVERS
Midwesterners have long awaited the weather to break, which means that outdoor foot traffic is going to be on the rise.

“Hammett added, “People generally feel safer because they’re not as worried about the weather, so speeds definitely tick up. We usually see a lot more of collisions due to high speed or even traffic tickets, speeding tickets, in the summertime, so the biggest thing is slow down and pay attention, which is generally great advice all year, but especially in the summer.”

CHUG UPDATES: May is “Summer Safety Awareness Month,” and while high temperatures can be dangerous for all age groups, young and older adults are known to be especially vulnerable to heat.
