USE SAFETY BELTS

 

Safety belts are life belts. They help to keep you:

  1. From being thrown from your car. (Your chances of being killed are five times greater if you are thrown from your car).
  2. From hitting the dashboard too hard.
  3. In better control of your car.

Whatever your reason for not wearing safety belts, it is not reasonable!

 

WHY YOU SHOULD NOT DRINK AND DRIVE

  1. Alcohol slows down reactions.
  2. Alcohol impairs vision.
  3. Alcohol interferes with concentration.
  4. Alcohol creates a false sense of confidence.

Remember for the average person, it takes one hour for the effects of one drink (30 ml) to wear off.
