The skeleton on the porch? Supposed to be scary.

The drive home? Absolutely not. 🎃

Halloween falls on a Saturday this year, which may mean more parties, later celebrations, and more people out enjoying the night. A little extra caution belongs in everyone’s plans.

👻 Slow down and watch for little monsters—especially near crosswalks, driveways, and parked cars.
📱 Let a passenger admire the decorations and answer the group chat. Your eyes belong on the road.
🚗 Arrange a sober ride before the party. “It’s only five minutes away” is not a transportation plan.
🍬 Help children cross safely. Candy is exciting. Traffic still needs their attention.

Whether you’re out collecting candy or attending a costume party, leave yourself extra time and help everyone get home safely.

Ghosts? Fine. Haunted houses? We’ll manage!

“I signed it without reading it.”

Now THAT will scare any attorney. 👻

Other frightening phrases:
🎃 “I lost the accident paperwork.”
🎃 “I posted the whole story on Facebook.”
🎃 “So and so said I don’t need legal advice.”

We’re having a little Halloween fun, but protecting yourself after a car accident is serious. Save your records, understand what you’re signing, and get advice specific to your situation.

Our latest blog covers five spooky mistakes to avoid after a car accident in Virginia, and what to do instead.

Two honors. One incredible community to thank. 🩵

We’ve just learned that our firm has been recognized in BOTH The News & Advance Readers’ Choice Awards and Lynchburg Living’s Best of Lynchburg!

To receive these honors year after year is humbling. Each time, we’re reminded that this recognition happens because of you; our neighbors, clients, friends, and families who take the time to vote, share our name, and support our firm.

Behind every vote is someone who believes in the work we do. That means more to us than we can fully express, and it is something we will never take for granted.

For those who have trusted us during some of the hardest moments of their lives, recommended us to someone they love, or supported us quietly over the years: thank you. You are the reason we get to continue doing work that matters to us, in a community that means so much to us.

From all of us at Overbey, Hawkins, Wright & Vance, thank you for these honors, and for the opportunity to keep earning your trust!

🌧️ The rain is welcome. A preventable accident isn’t.

With on-and-off rain today and tomorrow, a few small adjustments behind the wheel can help keep everyone safer:

🚗 Give cruise control a break. Leave it off on wet roads so you’re ready to adjust your speed as conditions change.

💡 Wipers on? Headlights on. They help you see AND help others see you. Check your automatic settings—don’t assume your lights are on just because your dashboard is illuminated.

🌊 Water covering the roadway? Turn around. You can’t judge its depth or the condition of the pavement underneath. It’s never worth the gamble.

🛑 Leave extra room to stop. Wet roads mean longer stopping distances. Slow down and leave more space so you have time to brake gradually. Sudden braking or sharp steering in standing water can make it harder to maintain control.

At OHWV, we see how quickly an ordinary drive can become a life-changing event. Please take your time, buckle up, and give one another a little extra space. 🩵

Saturday’s to-do list has a funny way of turning into a tour of every parking lot in town. ☕🚗

Whether you’re heading to the ball field, grabbing breakfast, or tackling “just one quick errand,” give yourself a little extra time, put the phone away, and watch for pedestrians—even before that first cup of coffee kicks in.

From all of us at OHWV, have a safe and happy Saturday! 🩵

What’s on your agenda today: something fun or the errands you avoided all week? 👀👇

09/11/2026

Today, we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001; the first responders and everyday citizens who ran toward danger; and the families and communities forever changed.

Our work reminds us that tragedy never touches only one person—it ripples through families, workplaces, and entire communities. Here in our close-knit community, we also know the strength found when neighbors show up for one another.

Twenty-five years later, may we continue to remember, to serve, and to care for one another. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

🐾 Happy National Dog Day! 🐾

Around here, we know dogs aren’t just pets — they’re family, copilots, walking buddies, and occasionally the reason you’re late because they simply had to sniff one more thing.

As we celebrate our four-legged best friends today, here’s your friendly reminder to keep them safe, too:

🚗 Secure pets properly when traveling
🐕 Use leashes in public spaces
☀️ Watch hot pavement and summer heat
👀 Stay alert around roads, sidewalks, and parking lots

📸 Now for the important part: we want to see your furry besties!

Drop a photo of your dog in the comments so we can celebrate National Dog Day together! 🐶💙

OHWV TIP TUESDAY ⚖️🌧️

Summer storms have been making a habit of showing up quickly lately, so here’s one wet-weather driving reminder worth saving:

If your vehicle starts to hydroplane, don’t panic — and don’t slam on the brakes.

Instead:

• Ease off the accelerator
• Keep the steering wheel steady
• Avoid sudden turns or hard braking
• Slow down and give yourself extra following distance
• Skip the cruise control when roads are wet — keep direct control of your speed instead

And if you come across water covering the roadway, don’t try to decide whether it looks shallow enough to cross. Turn around and find another route.

Heavy rain can reduce visibility, hide road hazards and cause standing water to build quickly. Hydroplaning can happen even with relatively little rain on the roadway. (Per the National Weather Service)

A few extra minutes getting there is always better than taking a chance.
