    • Safety Message

  • One of the most dangerous places to be is on the side of a road. If you have to pull over on the side of the road for some reason then you should stay in your vehicle. Your car will provide the best protection from other drivers. You should also stay seat belted in if possible and be sure to keep your children in their child passenger seats or booster seats. One of the reasons the family was not injured in this accident was because they stayed seat belted in their vehicle.
