Health Tip: Reduce Your Risk of a Car Injury
More than 2.5 million Americans visited emergency departments as a result of motor vehicle crashes in 2012, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The agency offers these tips to help reduce your risk of injury:
- The driver and all passengers always should wear safety belts, even for a very short trip.
- Make sure children are safely strapped in, children age 12 and under are in the backseat, and all children are in age-appropriate safety seats.
- Never drive after using drugs or drinking alcohol, and don't let others do so.
