Do You Have a Broken Tailight?
Most people do not realize how dangerous it is to drive your car or truck with a broken tail light lens or a burned out brake light. If your tail light is burned out and you have to make a quick stop to avoid hitting the car in front of you you could be held liable for the car behind you rear ending you. If your driver’s side tail light is out the car behind you would not immediately know that you have hit your brakes. This could cause a delayed reaction by them causing them to hit you. While it is hard to prove, there are some circumstances where it can be proved that your light was not functioning properly.
For the majority of cars and trucks, it is easy and inexpensive to replace the tail light lens or light bulb. Isn’t it worth a few bucks to avoid being rear ended in a car accident? It is also inexpensive to buy a car cover to protect your vehicle from dings, dents and possibly theft.
