Pete's Auto Tips by Harry Peters SAFETY BELT HABIT We notice many drivers at PETE'S SINCLAIR SERVICE who have safety seat belts but are not using them. If you ask about it, they generally answer that they're just driving around town. Most drivers think that they're just for long trips. Actually, statistics substantiate that over three quarters of fatal accidents happen within a few miles of the drivers' home, and the speed of the car is less than 40 miles per hour in over half of the accidents. It's a good idea to get the habit of attaching your safety belt every time you get into your car. In fact, we're thinking of including this personal service at PETE'S SINCLAIR SERVICE with the window cleaning, tire check and other safety services. We just can't do enough for your safety at 4416 W. Rt. 120, Lakeland Park. You see, we want you to keep coming back. Ask About Our Free Wash or Lube Service Plan.
