Arrive Alive Campaign
« on: 26 August 2009, 08:42:26 »
The National Roads Safety Council has done extensive testing on a newly designed seat belt.

Results show that accidents can be reduced by as much as 45% when
the belt is properly installed.
 

 

Correct installation is illustrated below.......

Afraid not Lizzie.  :D :D :D :D
Hubs is concentating on driveing. End of. We think, strangely, that while the mouth is talking shoes etc, the mind is not on the job.... For some reason :-)

Personally i find my right foot is directly linked to excess noise in the car. More is less..... To a point anyway.

Good call, reversed roles this evening, she was busy on the lapy, something important, dont know what, i was watching something she hates, having "booked it" in advance as "really interested" and "looking forward to it", then i proceeded to waffle and ask questions ALL THE WAY THOUGH my programme paying no attention to it at all! She was patient for about 30 seconds and throwing stuff at me by the end.....  1 to me. :-)

Correct installation is illustrated below.......


The alternative is to wait until the FPO (Fun Prevention Officer) is cooking a fry-up.
Stand behind her at the cooker
lean over her shoulder
keep commenting, along the lines of :-
'my god!,  your burning the bacon'
'Too hot, Too hot, the eggs are too hot!'
'Stir slower!'
'You will burn everything!!'

When she complains, tell her :-



'now you know how i feel when i drive' :exclamation
