Snow and ice conditions require extra precaution, including often traveling at speeds well below the posted limit.  In most situations, the driver of an automobile that loses control or slides into another vehicle due to slippery conditions is negligent in some way.  In very limited situations, it is possible for the operator to be found not negligent due to hidden ice that was unknown to the driver.  If you have been injured in an automobile accident involving slippery conditions, it is important that you speak with a personal injury attorney right away.  Call Bremer & Trollop Law Offices for a free consultation at 877-949-3200.
