Wednesday, August 9, 2000 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER C7 B e s t A U T O W h e e l s · O a k v i l l e G R A P H Night driving safety tips Look as far ahead as you can. If you can see an object that might present a haz ard, assume that it will, and slow down until you are absolutely certain it is not a hazard. Keep your windshield clean. A windshield that is dirty inside or outside causes glare, decreasing visibility. Windshield wipers that leave streaks or chatter across the windshield also decrease visibility and should be replaced. Clean properly aligned headlights are also very important for identifying hazards. Avoid over-driving your headlights. When an object becomes illuminated by your headlights, you should be driving slow enough to stop your car safely with out hitting it. Make sure other drivers can see you. Keep your tail-lights, turn signals, and brake lights clean and in good working order. It only takes a moment to walk around the car to check these systems. Have someone sit inside the car to operate the lights, brakes and turn signals. Or it's easy to check yourself in an enclosed area. Use your high beams, but don't forget to dim them for on-coming traffic or cars in front of you. If a driver coming toward you is using high beams, flash your lights quick ly with the dimmer switch. If the driver fails to dim the lights, look toward the right side of your lane. This will keep you from being blinded by the other car's headlights. You should be able to stay on course until the car passes. Keep that load tied down! W e've all bought something that's a little too big to fit in the trunk, requiring the lid to be part way open on the way home. And w e've all attempted to tie a knot to hold the trunk lid down using string or rope that somehow comes loose half way home. The following knots are not only useful, they might make your trip home safer by better securing your cargo. Sheet bend knot: inevitably, you'll end up patching Bowline knot: is simple to tie and untie in just about two pieces of rope together. H ere's a knot that won't any weather and will hold just about anything in place. slip, but you've got to keep the rope tight.
