NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. - Californer -- According to Pew Research, 41,900 people landed in the ER on average between the years 2000 and 2018, mostly from fireworks as well as car and boating accidents.[3] Summer opens people up to all sorts of injuries because people are outdoors, often taking part in drinking and dangerous forms of fun, like ATVing.

Memorial Day may mean a flight out of town, a road trip or a picnic. Maybe you plan to throw a barbecue in your backyard and invite family and friends. Some people gather at the pool or the beach since it's unofficially the first day of summer. Whatever it is that you're doing, it's important to remember two things: safety and insurance, because oftentimes the two go hand-in-hand. If you're entertaining at home you'll need the right homeowners or renters insurance.

You'll need adequate car insurance in case you're involved in an accident, regardless of what you do on Memorial Day.

The National Safety Council (NSC) estimated last year that there would be 450 deaths on the roads across the country.[1] There's no reason to think that this year is any different. In fact, the NSC says that Memorial Day and other summertime holidays (Independence Day and Labor Day) have the highest average fatality rates per day.[2]

This Memorial Day, you not only have to safeguard your own safety, but that of others, in case you're found liable for accidents and injuries. Keep reading for safety tips and all things insurance.
