Powhatan County Speeding and Aggressive Driving

Virginia Drivers: Speeding is serious because it:

  • Speeding reduces a driver’s ability to steer safely around curves or objects and encourages following too closely.
  • Speeding lengthens the stopping distance, which is especially dangerous when sudden braking is required.
  • Speeding increases the risk of wrecks and injuries because other cars, bicyclists and pedestrians may not be able to correctly judge the vehicle’s distance from them.
  • Speeding increases fuel consumption and costs.

As speed gets higher, the risk of death, disfigurement and serious injury during crashes increases, while at the same time, the effectiveness of air bags, seat belts and other safety devices decreases.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, (NHTSA), an accident on a road with a speed limit of 65 mph or greater is:

  • Speeding 65 or faster is more than twice as likely to result in death than a crash on a road with a speed limit of 45 or 50 mph
  • At 65 mph or more is nearly five times as likely to result in death than a crash on a road with a speed limit of 40 mph or below

Drivers should always obey the posted speed limit. Don’t get caught by law enforcement wrongly assuming there’s a “buffer zone” surrounding the posted speed limit. Speed limits are related to road conditions, and are enforced to save lives and protect motorists. Keep a safe stopping distance behind the traffic.

Do not be an Aggressive Driver

While your life may be in the fast lane, always plan ahead when driving and allow yourself extra time for unexpected delays. You can avoid accidents and traffic tickets.

  • Pay attention, relax and drive the posted speed limit.
  • Use your car’s signals to indicate a turn or lane change.
  • Provide safe distance when changing lanes after passing another vehicle.
  • Do not block the passing lane or tailgate other drivers.
  • Pay attention to traffic and weather reports for potential delays. It’s safer to leave earlier and take your time.
  • Have at least one alternate route in mind. While it may be a little longer in distance, this route could be less congested than the main route.
  • If all else fails, just be late. Better to be late and alive.
