Dennis Hurst

Welcome to the Dennis Hurst State Farm Agency. Some fun facts about me, my wife Suzanne and I are proud to call Norfolk our home. The United States Marine Corps brought me to Virginia in 1988 and Suzanne moved to Virginia in 1982 with her Navy parents. Married for thirty years, we have raised our children here and continue to be active and passionate members of the community.

Millions of Americans will head out to see family and friends during the holidays. Unfortunately, some of us will be involved in accidents. Holiday drivers often are distracted by talkative children, yelping pets, or holiday fixings sloshing around with every stop and go.

Use extra caution as you hit the road this year. Here are a few tips to keep your holiday plans on track:

• Say no to holiday eggnog. Never drink and drive, but also be on the lookout for haphazard driving and drivers operating their vehicles under the influence. Unfortunately, the number of accidents and fatalities caused by drinking inevitably rises around the holiday season. You can take other steps to avoid drinking and driving.

• Plan for shorter days. The more light, the safer the roads. During the winter months, an earlier sunset means you've got less daylight to work with. Ideally, plan your trip to avoid driving at night. If you think you're going to be out after dark, keep these night driving tips in mind.

• Be ready if your battery dies. Cold weather takes its toll on car batteries. Double-check to make sure you've got jumper cables in your trunk. You never know when an easy jump-start could save you time and hassle — or when you could use them to help someone else.

Happy Holidays!
