<<First Name>>,

It's that time of year when we go shopping for the holidays.  Did you know parking lots are one of the easiest places to get into an accident?
Parking spaces are a difficult area to get in and out of safely.  In the last year, I have had a couple of clients have accidents in parking lots.  For both, they were backing out of a space and were hit by someone driving through the parking lot.
As you contemplate shopping during the busiest time of the year, please be aware of your surroundings as you back out of parking spaces.  Alternatively, as long as you are comfortable, you could back into the space upon arriving, so when you leave, you are pulling straight out.  You could also park farther away in the parking lot to help avoid backing into someone, too.
I hope you and your family have a safe and happy holiday season.  I look forward to celebrating 2019 with you.
