of injury and severity of injury in case
of an accident. It is strongly
recommended that all the car
occupants always wear seat-belts
when car is in motion.

alcohol or drugs. Alcohol and drugs
will severely affect your reflex actions.
This will impair your control of the car
and increase the risk of injury to
yourself and others.

driving a car. This could divert your
attention from the road and result in
an accident.
