Recently I wrote a blog article about winter driving tips in Oregon but never discussed any of the same types of driving tips for Utah. Then during this last storm, Utah reported over a one hundred and twenty car accidents along the Wasatch Front from Sunday’s storm. While I did not have any of my Utah friends ask about winter driving tips, they did ask about what to do if they were involved in an accident. I have compiled a list of things to do at the accident scene below. I have also included an interesting article in the Deseret News, showing the large amounts of vehicle accidents that occurred during this latest storm.
