Re: safety issues while on vacation I dont have and remember any of very bad incidents to me while going for a getaway. Its common to have some little unlikely incidents. I like to give some safety tips for the vacations which i always follow while going to a getaways. here are they
# Check your smoke detectors, emergency car and first aid kits and fire extinguishers monthly.
# Emphasize safety when lighting fireworks and/or the home grill, and be prepared for minor fires or burns. Fifty-four percent of children injured during a fireworks display were under adult supervision.
# Sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 car accidents and more than 1,500 fatal crashes each year. Ask someone else to drive or pull over and take a break. Use good judgment . . . drinking caffeine, playing loud music or eating may temporarily help you to feel more alert. If you find yourself dozing off, stop the car and get a good night's rest.
# Choose sunglasses wisely. Yellow or blue lens sunglasses distort colors and are not good choices for driving. The American Academy of Ophthalmology recommends that your sunglasses block 99 to 100 percent of UVA and UVB rays. The label should indicate the amount of protection.
# Using headlights in the daytime helps reduce accident rates.
# Buckle up yourself and your passengers.
# Don't drink and drive.
# Observe pool safety: no running, no glass containers, no diving in shallow areas, no swimming alone and wear sunscreen.
Have a nice vacation |
