Scary thought huh! More people die in car crashes then people that died in all the wars. Even scarier thought, so that is one of the many reasons why we should educate people on the dangers and benefits of driving.
Steps we can take to reduce the number of deaths related to driving is by…
Turning our phones on driving, because a text or a phone call can wait until you get to the desired destination.
Driving sober is another way!
If you are to drink alcohol somewhere, make sure you have a designated driver to take you home.
Try to stay focus on driving.
Wait until you come to a complete stop to change the radio.
If you have kids, you should pull over safely and tend to them.
Theres times I witness an actual car accident. Let us start from the from the beginning, when I was 14 years old my family and I where driving through the city. And suddenly, a driver in the truck next to us was driving fast. The driver next to us had crash into this woman and made the women flip 3 times! And then kept driving until the police caught up with him. His B.A.C levels were high and went to jail that night. And for the women that flipped 3 times, well it did not end for her! My dad went to talk to the people in the ambulance and the paramedics said that she went into an automatic coma. We never found out what happened to her and man after that. To this day I still wonder what happened to those people after that day. How did it change their lives? Did it make their lives better or worse? Did that incident teach them something they will never forget?
