Winter Auto Body Damage

This weekend many New Jersey residents felt the power of old man winter. Homeowners had to deal with burst pipes, jet setters had to deal with extensive flight delays, and motorists were struggling to get their cars on the road. Despite the state of emergency, many offices and businesses were still open during Friday's winter storm. The treacherous roads and below digit temperatures wreaked havoc on New Jersey's automobiles.
One of the biggest problems, and most annoying, are drivers that have not cleared their car or commercial vehicle of snow and ice. Not only is this a nuisance on the road, it can also lead to some serious accidents. New Jersey auto body shops see an increase in business this time of the year, mostly with minor accidents. The slippery conditions are a catalyst for fender benders, but when loose snow and ice fly off cars it may end in tragedy. Many states have implemented a law that will fine motorists who have failed to clear snow off of their vehicles, but this does not stop it.

The damage from these oversights can range from body damage, to lethal accidents. It is important to make sure your car or vehicle is clear of any snow or ice before driving. This is not only safe for you, but for your fellow New Jersey motorists. Ridgewood Vehicle, a New Jersey auto body repair shop, sees the amount of damage this indiscretion can cause yearly.
