We all need to remember weather demands our undivided attention, so we have to turn down the radio and minimize other distractions. Sometimes, the best driving decision you can make is to stay off the road until the weather improves.
While the average hailstorm lasts only five minutes, the damage can be very significant. In order to stay safe, follow these two pointers.
Get off the road as soon as possible. It is often better to leave the road completely than to pull over to the side.
Stay covered. Do not get out of your car in a hailstorm. The pelting can cause injury to you as well as to your vehicle, so it is safer to stay inside the car until the storm passes.
Oh, hail. Driving safely in hail…
