Memorial Weekend is approaching and that means so are an increase in fatalities on the road. Yes, there will be an increase of people on the road but do your best to avoid becoming a statistic.
Don't drink or drive.
Don't tailgate.
Don't use your phone while driving.
And if you are too tired to drive home, simply don't! Stay where you are and drink another beer.
The National Safety Council has released its estimates for traffic crashes for the upcoming Memorial Day holiday weekend, which begins at 6 p.m. on Friday, May 25, and ends at 11:59 p.m. on Monday, May 28. The Council estimates 420 traffic fatalities and another 42,000 medically consulted injuries will occur over the traditional summer kick-off weekend from motor vehicle collisions.
I hope you all have a safe Memorial weekend.
