According to CSSE, a good solution to the problemn is to rub the blades with lacquer thinner. If this remedy is applied twice a year, theblades miglht well ast the life of your car, quotes the Ontario Safety beague. There's nothinig iii the safety mIles, whether at work, play, iii the home or on the higiway, where it says we must take a chance, esîecially a chance that niay result ini an accident and perhaps deatl>. Don't use short cuts or ignore basic safety rules. Don't tale a chanice with life. To the other guys on the higliway, you're the otiier guy. Next week, tlousands of ebjîdren acro'ss tîhe provinice will 1)e going back to sehool. Mothers will leave a sighi of relief. Many of those children will be attending schools other than the oies tley left last year, necessitat- ing nlew routes through utnfamiliar streets. New teachers, niew classroomns, new friends will add to the excitement of their youthful exuberance. Many other thousands will be journeying to school for the first time. They have yet to be acquainted with the Ontario Safety League's Elmer the Safety Elepliant and are, perhaps, unaware of what is expected of themn as they join the hunes of tiny commuters.i The Ontario Safety League reminds motorists to watch for the unexpected where chldren are oncerned. The majority of accidents involving cliildren are caused by the child running onto the road. Take extra care when approaching a schiool zone -- slow down. At scliool crossings and, ini major centres, pedestrian cross- overs, yield right of way to pedestrians in the crossWalk. Remember, it is dangerous and unlawful to pass a veliicle within 100 feet of a pedestrian crossover. Watch those school buses! Don't overtake a sehool bus whiich is stopped on the highway and bas it's red signal lights flashing. It is receiving or discharging passen- gers. If you meet a school bus picking up or discharging passengers on a highway other than one with a median strip, you must stop until the bus resumes motion or its signal lights are no longer operating. Almost half of the pedestrians injured last year in Ontario were in the 14 - and - under age group. 3,767 children were injured, and another 108 were killed on our roads and highways. The careful and watchful driver caui help reduce this senseless toîl, says the Ontario Safety League. 0f ail the passenger cars invohved in collisions in Ontario last year, ahmost seven thousand were in need of some type of mechanical repair or component replace- ment. 0f these, 1 ,559 vehicles had defective service brakes, while another 1,360 showed badly worn tires.
