Hunter Heavy Duty ALIGNMENTS McLEODS SPRING & CHASSIS For All Sizes of RVs Trucks, Trailers & Buses “Your Truck Chassis Specialists” 32 BLACKWELL ST., BARRE, VT 05641 • 1-802-476-4971 www.facebook.com/vtworld.news WORLD AUTOMOTIVE How Seniors Can Safely Stay Behind The Wheel A greater sense of independence is often cited as the reason so many young people anxiously await the day they earn their drivers’ licenses. But the connection between driving and independence is not lost on seniors, either. Aging can take its toll on drivers, prompting such drivers’ families to feel as if their loved ones’ ability to safely operate motor vehicles has been compromised. However, many seniors can still safely operate motor vehicles, and those who do can take steps to ensure they’re as safe as possible behind the wheel. • Avoid driving on days when aches and pains are strong. Aches and pains are common side effects of aging, and seniors know that some days are better than others. Seniors’ ability to control their vehicles may be compromised on days when stiffness, aches or pains seem particularly strong, so it’s best to avoid driving during these times. Fatigue may set in on days when aches and pains require extra effort to perform relatively simple tasks, and drivers of all ages should avoid driving while tired. • Don’t skip medical checkups. Few seniors may look forward to their medical checkups, but visits to the doctor can reveal issues that can help seniors be safer on the road. Schedule routine vision exams so eyeglass prescriptions are always up-to-date. In addition, seniors should discuss hearing screenings with their physicians so they can ensure they can always hear sirens and other motorists while on the road. Great strides have been made in regard to helping people with fading hearing hear better, and seniors would be wise to take advantage of such advancements, which include hearing aids that can be connected to smartphones. • Familiarize yourself with medication side effects. Whether they do so temporarily or permanently, many seniors take medications, and every medication comes with side effects. When filling a new prescription, carefully read the dosage and description label to ensure that it’s safe to drive while taking the medicine. Make note of how you feel when taking a new prescription, avoiding driving if the medication makes you feel fatigued or drowsy or affects your motor functions. If the side effects of a new prescription are making it difficult to safely operate a vehicle, discuss potential alternatives with your physician. • Avoid driving in certain conditions. Driving in inclement weather, during rush hour and at night makes many drivers uncomfortable, regardless of their age. But such conditions can be especially dangerous for aging drivers whose vision and reaction times might be fading. Seniors who avoid driving in harsh conditions and heavy traffic may be more comfortable behind the wheel, thereby reducing their risk of accident or injury. Seniors need not give up their drivers’ licenses at the first signs of aging. But adjusting certain behaviors and exercising extra caution can help these men and women stay safe behind the wheel.

Woodstock, NH’s White Mountain Motorsports Park (WMMP) on Saturday, August 3. Helliwell took the lead with four laps remaining after Jimmy Hebert and Scott Payea tangled on a restart, then held off a last-lap bid by Graniteville, VT’s Stephen Donahue for the win. Helliwell’s sudden rise to the top spot was just the latest twist in a race that was full of them. The three-time ACT champion had been running in the top-five through the late stages, but Hebert seemed to have the race in hand as the laps wound down – a feat made even more impressive by going the whole way on the same four tires. But Trent Goodrow spun in turn two to bring out the event’s 11th caution on lap 246. The yellow allowed Payea – who had already led 40 laps after starting 23rd – to draw to Hebert’s outside. The first two attempts at the restart were waved off, and on the third try, the lead duo got together entering turn two. Payea spun and both drivers were sent to the rear. That put Donahue and Helliwell on the front row for the restart, and when the green flag waved again, Helliwell made the outside groove work to grab his 12th career ACT Late Model Tour win. Donahue was the dominant driver early, taking the lead from polesitter Scott Dragon on lap four and staying out front for more than 70 laps. A competition caution for a fuel stop on lap 75 closed the field back up, and after the caution came back out three laps later for Jonathan Bouvrette’s spin, Groveton, NH’s Quinny Welch drove past him to take the top spot. During the caution, ACT point leader Rich Dubeau was one of a handful of drivers to change tires as strategy began to play itself out. Donahue and Welch swapped the lead twice more after another pair of quick cautions before the field settled into a long green flag run. Welch, the WMMP Late Model point leader, proceeded to lead 87 straight laps before Mark Jension hit the turn-two wall on lap 170 to bring out the sixth caution. During that yellow, all lead-lap cars except for Hebert, Dubeau, and Adam Gray came to the pits for tires. At that point, Williamstown’s Hebert was the only driver in the field still on the same tires he started with, and he assumed command for the restart. Hebert led the next nine laps until another yellow flew for Gray’s turn-two crash. The outside had been the place to be on restarts all night, and this time, it was Payea’s turn to ride the rim, completing his drive to first after needing to qualify through the B-Feature. Payea led the next 40 laps, but on the race’s next restart at lap 219 for Jesse Switser’s spin, Payea succumbed to the inside curse as Donahue took the lead back. During this time, Hebert had hung with the leaders even on his old tires. As Donahue and Payea diced for the point, Hebert saw a chance and made a daring three-wide move into turn three with 22 laps to go. Just seconds after Hebert crossed the line in first, Corey Mason spun in turn two to bring out the ninth caution, locking the pass into the record books. Mason was subsequently disqualified from the event for intentionally hitting another car under the caution. All the while, Helliwell was lurking. The veteran started 15th and spent the first twothirds of the event hanging around the back half of the top-10. Once the mass tire stop occurred on lap-170, he started creeping closer and closer to the front. Helliwell broke into the top-three for the first time on lap 206 and bounced between the third and fourth spot for the next 40 laps, waiting for an opportunity to strike. That opportunity finally arrived with four laps to go. Hebert had managed to make the inside work on a lap-236 restart from a debris caution, but Goodrow’s spin put Hebert and Payea side-by-side one more time with Donahue and Helliwell right behind. The contact between the leaders opened the door for Helliwell, and while Donahue tried to sneak back through in the final corners, “The Punisher” brought home the win. It was Helliwell’s second straight victory at WMMP after taking the New Hampshire Governor’s Cup the week before. Donahue earned an ACT career-best second-place finish. Barre, VT’s Jason Corliss was quiet most of the night but also took advantage of the late tangle to come home third. Milton, VT’s Scott Dragon took fourth with Plainfield, NH’s Dubeau rounding out the top-five. Welch, Ryan Kuhn, Payea, Joel Hodgdon, and Hebert finished sixth through 10th. Jonathan Bouvrette, Dylan Payea, and Dubeau won the qualifying heats. Helliwell and Christopher Pelkey were victorious in the consolation rounds while Cody LeBlanc captured the last-chance B-Feature. The ACT Late Model Tour next travels to Maine’s Oxford Plains Speedway on Saturday, August 24. The Oxford Plains 150 is part of the “Night Before the 250” that also includes events for the Tri-Track Open Modified Series, North East Classic Lites, NELCAR Legends, Oxford Street Stocks, and Wicked Good Vintage Racers. Post time is 4:30pm. For more information, contact the ACT offices at (802) 244-6963, media@acttour.com, or visit www.acttour.com.
