Here comes the rain again


In Northern California, Fall has finally come. And with that comes the much welcome rain.

Despite needing all the rain we can get, rains can cause a ton of headaches if you're not properly prepared.

Make sure your vehicles are in good order headed into the Winter months. Fog, wind, rain and other factors come into play during any given day leading to a variety of accident potential.

Check all tires and make sure tread is adequate, brakes are checked, windshield wipers are clean and in good working condition and that your insurance coverage is secured. If you don't know already, check into your coverage and make sure you have "med-pay" coverage included in your policy. This is to cover you in the event your injuries are substantial and attorneys become involved.

Taking precautions up front to ensure you and your family is covered will make situations much easier in the event of an accident.

Of course, if you are in an accident - document everything. Eye witnesses, police reports, medical bills or copies of x-rays or exam findings are important to building a proper case should damages need to be recovered.

In addition, be sure to pay a visit to your trusted chiropractor to properly evaluate the extent of any injuries that may have been sustained as a result of the accident.

Be smart, stay day and have a happy and healthy Fall season.
