“Be alert. Always give driving your full attention at intersections and everywhere else on the road.”
That’s the advice from SGI and it’s also the message of the Crown Corporation’s awareness campaign which debuts today (Sun).
SGI spokesperson Tyler McMurchy states that nearly half of all collisions happen in intersections.
Some of the most common causes of accidents are driver distraction and inattention, failure to yield, speeding, following too closely and not adjusting to road conditions.
McMurchy adds that being alert can help to prevent accidents, which then also means no one getting injured and no resulting costs or other potential consequences.
