31
32 Safe driving demands the ability to divide attention among numerous simultaneous tasks
33 I M A GREAT MULTI TASKER

44 HAVE YOU EVER Not remembered driving from one place to another? Taken a wrong turn and you weren't lost? Drifted into another lane of traffic? Started driving to work instead of to the grocery store?
45 REDUCE YOUR RISK

54 REDUCE YOUR RISK Set music before embarking Do your grooming at home! Plan your route beforehand Secure everyone and everything Pull over where it s safe and to answer calls, check messages etc.
