Health Tip: Check for Children in the Driveway
By LadyLively on June 8, 2015
Vehicle safety begins in the driveway. Drivers should always check surroundings as they back out of the driveway to ensure a child isn’t near.
The National Safety Council warns:
- Children most vulnerable to being struck in the driveway are younger than age 4.
- A driver should always walk a complete lap around the car before pulling out of the driveway.
- A driver should never rely solely on a backup camera or mirrors to detect a nearby child.
- A driver should always lock any car when not in use to prevent a child from climbing inside.
