Occupant safety reminders
How safely you drive doesn't depend on how old you are but rather on:
• How well you see.
• Your ability to concentrate.
• How quickly you make decisions under stress to avoid an accident.
The following suggestions are intended to help you cope with the ever changing traffic environment.
• Never drink and drive.
• If you are taking any medication, consult your physician about its potential effects on your driving abilities.
• Take a driver-retraining course.
• Have your eyes checked regularly.
• Keep your windshield and headlights clean.
• Replace wiper blades when they start to leave streaks.
• Take into account the traffic, road, and weather conditions, particularly with regard to stopping distance.
• Never send text messages while driving.
• Refrain from using or minimize the use of a cell phone while driving.
