If you find yourself needing to seek car accident compensation for an incident that has occurred around the time British clocks have reverted from daylight savings, you are not alone.
Insurance company Zurich Connect say that every year there is an 11 percent increase in the car accident compensation rate compared to the two final weeks of British summertime.
Can this be a coincidence? Well, the answer is a firm "no"; the winter time car accident compensation litigation rate is also 11 percent higher than the two initial weeks of British summertime.
A spokesperson with the insurance company comments, "Daylight saving has become a dark week on Britain's roads as accidents shoot up."
"It's possible that drivers get used to driving their regular routes in broad daylight, then find it hard to adjust to suddenly doing the same journey at the same time, but in the dark. Couple this with the fact that autumnal weather is often wet and windy, and the risk of having an accident on the road is significantly increased," he explains.
But this picture does not mean that the clocks going back is the cause of the increased crash rate. Just as with most road accidents, driver behaviour is the main cause of accidents in the early autumn months; typically such things as neglecting to follow the two second rule, neglecting to keep lights and windows clean, driver tiredness and failing to ensure proper vehicle maintenance.
Driving conditions may be less clement, but this does not mean making a successful car crash claim should be any less likely.
