During the autumn period, every motorist must be doubly vigilant.

The reason is simple: during the transitional season, pedestrian behavior changes.

A driver who is not prepared for changes can create a very dangerous situation on the road.

So, for what reasons exactly should a motorist become much more attentive and careful while driving in the fall?

After all, dark coats and trousers keep you warm and get dirty more slowly.

However, a person wearing such items of clothing becomes less noticeable. In cloudy weather, this problem is aggravated.

Every driver should prepare for such a situation.

People are in a hurry

Many people start to "jump out" onto the road. Some even forget to look around.

Don't repeat these dangerous mistakes. And one more thing: when driving, remember that there may be potential traffic violators among pedestrians.
