Unfortunately, automobile accidents happen. Automobile accidents can have serious consequences for all involved. Car crashes can cause property damage, injuries and even fatalities. Because of the serious consequences car accidents can entail, it is important that drivers always practice safe driving behavior to help keep themselves and others safe while on the roadways. Recently, an accident occurred in Milwaukee involving different types of motor vehicles.

The accident occurred the afternoon of Tuesday, July 21. It happened near Good Hope Road and Teutonia Avenue in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The accident happened when two vehicles were involved in a car accident with one another. The force of this collision caused the one of the vehicles to collide with a Milwaukee County Bus. At the time of the collision, the bus had been parked for its layover. Thankfully, there were no passengers on bus at the time of the accident.

Because car accidents can have serious consequences, it is of the utmost importance that drivers do everything they can to ensure they are practicing safe driving. Safe driving includes avoiding distracted driving activities, such as using a cell phone while driving and eating while driving, adhering to the speed limit and traveling at a speed that is safe for weather conditions, and obeying all traffic laws and regulations. When drivers practice safe driving, they help to make the roadways safer not only for themselves, but also for others. When the roadways are safer, the risk of an accident decreases, therefore so does the amount of injuries and property damage.
