No mechanical safety device can replace the protection of careful driving. Last year, traffic accidents claimed the lives of more Canadians than ever before. Someone was injured every 8 minutes, A car was damaged every 48 seconds, Automobile insurance claims rose to more than $150,000,000. One result of this is higher automobile insurance rates --because what is paid out in claims must be brought in by premiums, But even more important is the fact that you hold your life, and the lives of others, in your hands when you get behind the wheel of a car.
