Wellness Overview – Car Safety - Popup |
Each year more than 40,000 people die from motor vehicle accidents; about 117 deaths each day! Most are preventable. Here’s how. Always buckle up. Never drink and drive (responsible for 39% of deaths). Take your time and drive carefully. Don’t speed (responsible for 30% of all deaths). Don’t drive when drowsy; pull over and take a rest. Stay focused on your driving; don’t be distracted by talking on a cell phone. Don’t let emotions get out of control while driving. Drive safely. The life you save may be your own. |
