Budget Brakes Safety Reminder: Passenger Safety

Tuesday, October 4, 2011

Budget Brakes knows that traveling with passengers can be a lot of fun. Listening to the radio, joking around, or chatting can be mildly distracting at best and dangerous and risky at worst.

Budget Brakes wants to remind all customers that the only safe way to socialize in the car is calmly, with both eyes on the roar. Talking to passengers by facing them can endanger your life and your passenger's life. Blaring music on the radio and yelling can cause drivers to miss valuable auditory signals like car horns and emergency sirens.

Passengers can also be an ongoing distraction, even when behaving. They may ask you to change the radio (tell them to change it themselves), look at something on the wide of the road, or encourage you to make quick stops or turns ("Pull in here!"). Try to remember that you're in control of the car and responsible for their safety, and don't let passenger influence the way that you drive.

Budget Brakes cares for the safety of your family. Budget Brakes encourages drivers to be mindful of road safety, even when passengers might serve as a distraction. Budget Brakes also hopes that parents teach safe driving rules to teens, who are at a higher risk of erratic driving due to peer influence.
