DRIVESAFE Program

Provides “kids-to-adults” messages, from child amputees to drivers, developed to promote safe driving and to prevent serious injury due to traffic accidents. Offers defensive driving tips and DRIVESAFE windshield stickers. Tips include: 

• Tailgated? – Let’em go by!
• Don’t be panicked by other drivers.
• Skateboards, rollerblades, and bikes are here – share the road.
• Slow down 10 km/h in bad weather.
• Be seen. Use your headlights night and day.
• Don’t sightsee when behind the wheel.
• Anger is dangerous. Try a smile.
• Conversation distracting? Head it off – politely.
• Expect the other driver to ignore signals. Don’t trust others with your life.
• Don’t be tempted to phone or text – use hands free or turn it off.
