Without a doubt, seat belts are the most significant safety device ever invented. Seat belts do several things for you. They provide impact protection, they absorb crash forces, and they keep you from being thrown out of the vehicle. Modern vehicles are built with "crumple zones," and seat belts are an integral part of the system. The belts hold you in place while the vehicle collapses around your "safe" zone. Belts help keep you in your place, in control, and better able to avoid a crash. Yet for all these benefits, folks have lots of "reasons" why they don't wear them. 1. "They wrinkle my clothes." Absolutely, they do. 2. "They're uncomfortable." Maybe so, but you can adjust them, so they fit better. If you need to have your belts adjusted to fit, see your dealer. 3. "I want to be thrown clear of the vehicle in a crash." Oh yes, PLEASE, on my head! By the way, that's the number one cause of death in vehicle crashes. 4. "I don't want to be trapped if there's a collision, or my vehicle ends up in the water, or on fire." Wearing belts increases the likelihood you will be conscious after impact, less injured, and more able to get out. Seat belt failure or jamming isn't common. 5. "The government can't tell ME what to do! It's a free country!" Yes, it is. But what about other people's rights? When you don't wear belts and get injured, what happens when your insurance runs out? The public pays your medical bills, that's what. This costs taxpayers around $35 million a year. SAFETY SUGGESTIONS/CONCERNS If there is a topic or item that you would like either reviewed in a monthly newsletter or discussed at the quarterly safety meetings; please fill out suggestions and concerns form and please drop a note in the Safety Basket and we will do our best to accommodate your safety requests. 6. "I've heard of people who were in crashes who would have been killed if they'd been wearing belts." Who says so? Not any safety expert with whom I've ever spoken. If a collision can kill you with a belt on, then you're out of luck without the belt also, unless by a fluke. What I want is good odds. The statistics show that seat belts would prevent roughly 50% of deaths and injuries. What about others who ride with you what if they won't wear belts? I would say no ride for them. In any collision, unbelted passengers become flying objects you can be injured if you are struck from behind by an unbelted passenger, even with your belt on. Proud Members Of

2 CANNABIS IMPAIRMENT 2

3 CANNABIS IMPAIRMENT Impairment in workplaces Workers who are impaired on the job whether by alcohol or drugs are a danger to their coworkers and themselves. Alberta already has rules and programs in place to address impairment on the job and keep workers safe, but before the legalization we will review occupational health and safety regulations and work with employers, labour groups and workers to ensure the rules continue to address impairment issues. This may include developing additional regulations, education or training programs. What are the facts about cannabis impairment? Driving while impaired by cannabis can result in injury or death. Cannabis can impair the skills needed to drive safely. The risk of having a car accident is even greater when alcohol is added to the mix. Using cannabis with other drugs such as certain pain medications or sleeping pills further lowers your ability to concentrate and react quickly to emergencies. Don t drive high. How long the impairing effects of cannabis last depends on how it was consumed (smoked, inhaled, ingested) and how much was taken, but effects can last at least six (6) hours or longer after use. 3
