Pleasure time is no time for accidents and sudden death, but unfor
tunately that is when the grim specter works overtime. ,
On the average week-end about 290 persons are killed and more than
13,600 injured. In a year's time, week-end and holiday casualties climb to
the numbing total of 15,000 dead, 750,000 injured, or about 41 percent of all
lives lost annually in traffic accidents. .
With a week-end or holiday coming up, families and vacation parties
swarm the roads to places of recreation, traffic is congested, driving strain
increased and then the fatal count begins.
, Millions of good, bad and indifferent drivers speeding, cutting in, weav
ing, ignoring the rules of courtesy, challenging traffic controls, provide the
lethal ingredients for crashing and killing. Add to this the potion of the
drinking driver and the mixture is deadly.
When you plan week-end driving be doubly cautious. Try to avoid peak
hours of travel and congested routes. Start early, return before or after
the rush. Watch your driving, keep your temper, don't contest the right-of-way
and watch the other driver!
Slow down take a little longer and bring your family home alive.
SLOW DOWN-LIVES ARE IN YOUR HANDS!
