Safety IS CARING<br />
I’m driving down the highway and it is an amazing day<br />
outside, all of the sudden I hear a loud crashing noise.<br />
When I look over and see that there has been an<br />
accident. On first reaction I drive over to see if there is<br />
anything I can help with, and if 911 needs to be called.<br />
You wait around to make sure everyone is ok and wait for the ambulance. You<br />
administer first aid to the drivers of the one vehicle, and then go help the other<br />
vehicles driver. You speak to each of them and realize that the young driver in the car<br />
that caused the accident was on the phone while driving.<br />
While it is illegal to be on your phone now, most drivers choose to not obey this law,<br />
no matter the consequences. With no thought of the safety of others in mind and a<br />
care in the world of what could happen. The<br />
penalties are not high enough for the crime<br />
that is committed when you take your life and<br />
the lives of others into your hands. The problem<br />
now is that most of society is dependent on our<br />
electronics and can’t go without looking or<br />
touching them for more than ten minutes.<br />
When it comes to driving and doing this, it<br />
becomes unsafe. Most people in life wake up get ready for work or whatever and go about their day<br />
without thinking of the things that could happen during the day. Safety is usually put on the back<br />
burner because the mindset of most people is that it won’t happen to me. But in fact those are the<br />
people that most incidents and accidents happen to the most. Just like the driver of the vehicle<br />
accident, she was on her phone and didn’t have a care in the world about the other drivers on the<br />
round or what kind of consequences could come from her doing this act.<br />
take two minutes our of our day and just<br />
STOP and THINK<br />
about ourselves and the safety of others<br />
I strongly suggest each and every one of us take two minutes out of our day and just stop and think<br />
about ourselves and the safety of other people. What you will notice is that by doing things differently<br />
we can change a lot of things in this world for the better.<br />
