Plc.mning a vacation with safety in mind
Don't let an accident or un-
pleasant experience spoil your
vacation. A little time and pre-
planning is necessary, says the
Ontario Safety League, whether
it's a long weekend trip or a
three-week holiday. The League
offers pointers for vacationers.
Make sure that you have
stopped milk, newspaper and
other deliveries and ask a neigh-
bor to keep advertising circulars
off your porch. Leave the window
shades raised and arrange to
have your lawn mowed. Prowlers
watch for such tip-offs. You can
also arrange with your local post
office to hold all mail deliveries.
Lock windows and doors when
you leave the house and don't
forget the basement windows and
entrances. Be sure to shut off gas
and water at the main valves
and, unless the refrigerator or
freezer is to be left on, shut off
electricity..at the master switch.
If you are leaving the current on,
disconnect lamps and appliances
at the wall outlets. If the re-
frigerator is disconnected, leave
the door open to prevent mold.
Inform the police how long your'
house ill be vacant. . Many
departments will take a number
and address where you can be
reached in case of emergency.
Have your car serviced
thoroughly, paying close atten-
tion to the safety features such as
lights, brakes, tires, steering and
windshield.wipers. Put a first aid.
kit, flashlight, and fire ex-
tinguisher in the car and a supply'
of minor bits and pieces, that fre-
quently break and stop you on the
road. If you've got a fan belt,
radiator hoses, points, plugs and
fuses with you, any service
station can install them to get
you going.
Plan your trip in advance so
that you are, not covering too
many miles in one day. On super
highways, a constant speed can
make you drowsy. Vary your
speed and make frequent stops
for coffee and to stretch your
legs. If you are travelling to
another province or state,
remember that not all signs and
signals are uniform. Check out
your route before you start. If you
plan your route through an
organization like the Ontario
Motor League or the CAA, they
will advise you of local driving
regulations.
Don't try to crowd a year's
exercise into two or three weeks.
Take the sun in easy doses. Wear
your sun glasses• and don't nap in,
the sun. The Ontario Safety
League cautions vacationers that
alcohol is as much a problem in'
outdoor activities as it is in
driving.
Stay out of the water for at
least an hour after eating, and
swim in sight of others, using the
buddy system. Be sure that the
water is deep enough and free of
obstructions before diving. And
don't try to swim too far.
When boating, distribute the
Toad evenly and wear PFD's
(Personal Floatation Devices I
Don't stand up . . . even when
fishing. Check the weather before
going far on - a large lake
Remember, it is dangerous and
illegal to operate motor boats in
swimming areas. Most boats
won't sink, so stay with it until
help comes if it capsizes.
When hiking, watch that the
children don't sampl6 strange
berries or touch unfamiliar
plants. Wear good hiking boots
and be sure of your footing when
climbing
The barbecue can be fun, but
also dangerous. Don't squirt
lighting fuel on coals that have
started to burn. And don't use the
barbecue as a source of heat for
campers and tents. The coals
emit dangerous carbon
iTlonoxide. "� ,
If you follow these tips from the
Ontario Safety League, you
should have a safe and happy
vacation.
