When cars come into uncomfortably close proximity of something, panic ensues. The driver may try to stomp their foot on the brake, speed up or try to veer their vehicle away from the incoming object. They feel they often have to react within a split second and try to get their cars away from each other with no regard to what else is on the road.
Unfortunately, this quick maneuver is often responsible for more harm than good. No matter what type of setting you find yourself in, pulling a quick swerve with your vehicle can put you into more danger than what you originally were going to crash into. As the air gets colder, the sky grows darker and the streets become more slippery, you should be aware of the risk of swerving your car too hard in a lane.
