<\/strong><\/h2>\nSummer Road Safety<\/strong><\/h2>\nAccording to the Canada Safety Council, \u201cMore fatalities occur on Canadian roads during the summer months than at any other time of year, including the winter holiday season.\u201d Unfortunately this is due to alcohol, fatigue and reckless driving. Whether you\u2019re headed out onto the road for one last road trip before summer ends or off to the beach, both the Canada Safety Council and First Aid Canada recommend being prepared on the road.<\/p>\n
Before You Head Out<\/strong><\/h2>\nBefore you head out on the road for an adventure it is important to check the functions of your vehicle and make sure that all regular tune-ups and fluid changes have been completed. This will avoid unwanted roadside emergencies and of course a delay on your exciting plans.<\/p>\n
Ensure Passenger Safety<\/strong><\/h2>\nBe sure all passengers have working seatbelts and remain buckled in at all times before heading out onto the road. Children have different safety requirements within vehicles depending on their age and size. It is important to check regulations and be sure you have the adequate car seats.<\/p>\n
Stay Alert<\/strong><\/h2>\nRoad trips mean lengthy periods of driving which can create a threat of exhaustion. It is important to stop regularly to fuel up your vehicle, but also stretch your legs and remain hydrated. If you become tired on the road, take a break. If needed pull over in a safe area and take a nap. It is always better to be safe than sorry.<\/p>\n
