4 ways to avoid crashes this winter: SGI
It’s no surprise that collisions in Saskatchewan increase in winter time. On Thursday, crown insurance company SGI hosted a media event centred around providing tips to avoid crashes.
Tyler McMurchy with SGI said that although collisions are more common in winter, they are often the kinds that are more likely to damage the vehicle than the driver.
“Maybe vehicles are travelling a little bit slower or they tend to be in more urban areas where you’re seeing a lot more of those collisions that damage property,” he said.
With that being said, McMurchy said it’s still bothersome to deal with collisions even if no one is hurt, since those involved would have to deal with the costs amid a rising cost of living.
