Council statistics indicate that I st year 437 persons died in motor vehicle accidents during the Memorial Day weekend. "Memorial Day weekend is traditionally the start of the summer vacation season," said Dick Tippie, the council's manager of traffic safety. "Many individuals and families will travel our nation's roads to visit with families and friends." Increased traffic congestion means that the possibility of an individual suffering an accident also increases, Tippie said. "The important thing to remember is that almost all accidents can be prevented through defensive driving and proper safety education," Tippie said. *, He suggested the following tips for motorists: Always use a safety belt and fasten children in child safety seats. Memorial Day weekend kicks off the council's national "Make It Click-Buckle Up" campaign, which promotes greater motor vehicle occupant protection. If a person chooses to drink, they should not drive. One person from a group can be chosen to abstain from drinking and to drive the others home safely. • Maintain a safe following distance behind the vehicle in front. A general rule of thumb is to allow at least two seconds of travel time between your car and the vehicle ahead. Increase the following distance if hauling a camper or if road conditions are poor. If making a long trip, make sure your vehicle is in good operating condition. Check your vehicle's fluids, brakes and tires.
