Safe Driving Makes A Merrier Christmas
National Safety Council opens its Christmas safety campaign with a call for careful driving. The holiday period is the most dangerous of the year with about double the fatalities of surrounding weeks. A nationwide effort aims to cut accidents through weather awareness, safer speeds, and no driving after drinking. NAD Dearborn urged vigilance and cited the Fourth of July and Labor Day as reminders that holiday hazard days require sustained care.
