10 Ways to Curb Highway Deaths







Number 1

Auto & Truck Advertisers

Please stop emphasizing speed in your commercials!

Speed kills!







Number 2

Drivers

Please drive defensively!

Slow down!

Don't let your ego or macho drive your vehicle!

Speed kills!







Number 3

Educators

Please teach safe driving techniques, particularly, to young students!

Please emphasize to them that speed kills!







Number 4

Enforcement Officials

Please use education as much as penalization!

Teach through public service campaigns that speed kills!







Number 5

Politicians

Please provide monies to make our highways and local roads safer!







Number 6

Manufacturers

Please continue to make our vehicles safer!

Perhaps, more absorbent bumpers along with automated danger recognition devices are next steps!







Number 7

Media

Please give emphasis to safe roads and safe drivers as well as acknowledge the huge problem of so many unnecessary highway deaths!







Number 8

Pedestrians and Bicyclists

Please be more cautious, wear brighter, colored clothing, and lobby for safer auxiliary sidewalks and biketrails!







Number 9

Business People

Please build more rest stops for coffee, snacks, and bathroom facilities along all major highways!







Number 10

Everyone

Please be patient and courteous on our roads!
