What is learned and practiced during Safe-Driving Week (Dec. 1 to 7) can be put to use through the year to save lives and prevent suffering and property loss. The Canadian Highway Safety Council emphasizes defensive driving. This is not done to detract from the value placed on safe vehicles and safe highways. They have definite importance in the over-all safety scheme. However, since more than 90% of Canada's road crashes occur through human failure, we must concentrate on that aspect. Defensive driving is little more than common sense. Simply, it means learning how to know potential dangerous situations, learning how to avoid them, then putting that know- ledge to use. Since 42% of the people surveyed in connection with The Canadian Drivers Test television program failed the test, our belief has been strengthened that few people know where danger lurks. The driver is our principal target. The Canadian winter, with its tumult of ice, snow and sub-zero temperatures is al- most with us. Defensive driving becomes more important now than ever. There is no place on our highways for the unthinking, over-agressive driver. But he will be there to plague us, so we must avoid him. We must prevent his idiocies from killing and maiming and destroying. This can be done through defensive driving. We earnestly seek your assistance in bringing thorough awareness of this to every Canadian who drives or walks. Do it during Safe-Driving week so the effect will endure for many weeks.
