While winter have their own pleasures longer nights and rainy days mean increased danger on the roads. So what do you do? Sometimes, there’s no way around driving at night. So here are some tips to help you make a safe trip whether you’re just running to the store, or driving a long distance.... Make sure your vehicle’s lights are in good working condition. And not just headlights, but turn signals, taillights, etc. Avoid speeding. Leave a bigger cushion between you and other cars than you would during daylight hours. Leave yourself more time for the trip. Be more aware of your surroundings. You shouldn’t be using your phone, messing around with the radio or trying to find something on the floor while you’re on the road anyway and distractions are even more deadly at night. Of course, if you’re not comfortable driving at night, the best thing is to avoid it altogether if possible. There’s nothing wrong with asking for a ride from a trusted safe driver or waiting for the sun to come out!

Driving can ensure freedom, create possibilities Learning to drive is one of life’s seminal steps. It’s a skill that, once mastered, provides independence and freedom. It accommodates personal and professional pursuits. Driving is one more skill that allows individuals to call their own shots. After a vehicle is modified with customized equipment, however, there is the task of learning how to operate the vehicle. In many ways, knowing the rules of the road is the same for a p...erson with disabilities as it is for anyone else. However, there are additional steps that are required to secure a valid adapted driver’s license. The most important aspect of adaptive driving is making sure that vehicle modifications are suited to a driver’s unique needs and ensuring that a driver is comfortable out on the road. Capuchino Therapy Group has both the expertise and equipment to assist drivers with a wide range of physical disabilities.

More tips to help you stay safe in the water Air-Filled or Foam Toys are not safety devices: Don’t use air-filled or foam toys, such as "water wings", "noodles", or inner-tubes, instead of life jackets. These toys are not life jackets and are not designed to keep swimmers safe.... Learn to Swim: Formal swimming lessons can protect young children from drowning. However, even when children have had formal swimming lessons, constant, careful supervision when children are in the water, and barriers, such as pool fencing to prevent unsupervised access, are still important.

Tips to help you stay safe in the water Use the Buddy System: Always swim with a buddy. Select swimming sites that have lifeguards when possible.... Seizure Disorder Safety: If you or a family member has a seizure disorder, provide one-on-one supervision around water, including swimming pools. Wear life jackets: Enough said. Local firehouse can provide FREE life jackets to you to borrow when going to the river. Water wings and blow up rings are not going to save a life. Do not use them. Get your kids a lifejacket that fits them!
