The end of daylight-saving time is just around the corner, making night-time driving more dangerous. In fact, more than 2,300 people die on U.S. highways each year because of insufficient lighting, or “over driving” headlights, according to researchers at the University of Michigan. Over driving headlights occurs when your headlights don’t provide enough seeing distance down the road for the speed which you are driving at. Most experts believe the maximum safe speed with average low beams under most conditions is only about 45 miles per hour.

It’s surprising, but being buckled up with a safety belt is not the safest way for many children to ride in a vehicle. Safety belts are designed for adults, and children under 4’9″ tall should ride with a booster seat. Children prematurely moved to seat belts are 4 times more likely to suffer serious head injuries during a collision than children in child safety or booster seats. The booster seat message is a crucial one, NHTSA estimates that up to 90% of children in the U.S. who should be using a booster seat are not. The goal of this campaign… Read More
