Road Safety Reminder for the Week
Backing Out/Parking
Before you back out of a driveway or parking spot, prevent backovers by walking around your vehicle to check for children running and playing.
When using a backup camera, remember that kids, pets, and objects may be out of view but still in the path of your vehicle. When children play, they are often oblivious to cars and trucks around them. They may believe that drivers will watch out for them.
Furthermore, every vehicle has a blind zone. As the size and height of a vehicle increases, so does the “blind zone” area. Large vehicles, trucks, SUVs, RVs, and vans are more likely than cars to be involved in backovers.
