Being in a traffic accident is a very headache situation to be in. According to the Department of Statistic, Malaysia is one of the top 3 country that has the highest fatality rates in Asia, while the road accidents is the 4th most common cause of death in Malaysia.

Most of the accidents that happened on Malaysian roads are usually freak accidents, which is hard for any motorist to avoid. However, car owners can always opt to take preventive steps, on top of being more cautious on the road and getting a good insurance plan that has a hassle-free claims process.

Let’s take a look at a few common causes of road accidents:

  1. Speed Kills

Speeding is one of the most common causes of road accidents. The higher the speed and thrill, the more severe the accident is going to be. There is no telling if the road will be wet up ahead, if there are potholes, or other pedestrians and motorists. This is made worse when rear passengers are not properly buckled in.

  1. Gadgets Away

Using a mobile phone when driving is as bad as driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Looking down at your mobile phone will distract a driver for an average of 4 seconds. This amount of time is sufficient to cause an unwanted accident. It is more important to get to the destination safely and on time than checking a message or social media.

  1. Red Means Stop

We see these almost every day, especially among motorcyclist. Drivers and motorist needs to keep in mind that when When the light turns amber, it means slow down, but a majority of drivers accelerate instead. This is highly dangerous because there may be blind spots for vehicles coming from the other direction or worse, motorcyclists beating the red light from another corner.

  1. Signalling Saves Lives

All type of vehicles are fitted with functioning indicator, it is to inform other road users about the direction of the driver is heading. It is the most basic and yet crucial form of communication on the road between motorists. Switching lanes or making a sharp turn without signalling first will result in accidents.

  1. Poorly Maintained Car

Maintaining your car is part of your ownership experience, and it must not be skipped. If a car is not properly maintain, it may cause accidents during emergency situation. For example, balding tyres, broken turn signals, low brake fluid and exhausted brake pads could put you and everyone around you in danger. Driving blindly without thinking of timely maintenance is hazardous.
