As storms continue to batter the UK, UK Carline stresses road safety

UK Carline says that bad weather is causing problems for British drivers

A prominent car leasing company in the UK, UK Carline, has this week warned British drivers to remain cautious when driving in heavy rain and winds, stating that forecasted storms and snow will continue to make driving a treacherous task in much of the UK.

Storms have continued to batter the South of England, putting thousands more towns at risk of significant flooding. Worse still, according to car leasing company UK Carline, the bad weather is making driving hazardous in many parts of the UK.

A representative for the Lancashire-located leasing company said:

"We're currently seeing some of the worst sustained flooding that the UK has had for many years, and even in regions that have avoided flooding there's still no shortage of heavy rain and strong winds, both of which make driving an absolute nightmare.

"According to experts there have already been a large number of crashes, many of them deadly, so far this year, and the atrocious driving conditions have played a part in that.

"It's especially important with low road visibility and powerful winds to take extra caution when driving, making sure to drive at a slow speed and leave distance between you and the vehicle in front of you."

Another way to remain safe on the roads this month, says UK Carline, is to drive a quality car.

"Without question, a major problem when it comes to driving safely is operating an old substandard car. If you have a car with performance issues, particularly if it's an older model, you're undoubtedly at increased risk of an accident.

"Driving a flawless, new car with a quality design and brake performance will reduce the potential for a crash, and help to protect you from injury if you are unfortunate enough to be in an accident."

While buying a new, quality car might be outside of your budget, UK Carline says that leasing a car is a much more affordable option.

"Leasing is the most cost effective way to get your hands on the best cars out there. We have thousands of the country's most popular vehicles available for leasing on our website. Personal, maintained, business and commercial leasing is available from UK Carline.

"If you're due an upgrade and you want a car that will help to keep you safe on the roads, UK Carline can help.
