A Quick Auto Safety Course.
AutoSafetyHub.org presents
most important safety tips on one web page. For example, here's two
things to remember for your next car purchase:
- Here's a Bright Idea.
A New Zealand study concluded that brightly colored cars are about twice as safe
from traffic crashes as hard-to-see cars colored green,
brown or black. Silver cars
were the safest -- they were estimated to be half as likely as white cars to have an accident.
- Electronic Stability Control.
These "ESC" systems can prevent rollovers and spin-outs. They reduce traffic fatalities by 15%
for most cars, and 25% for SUVs. They're now standard on about half of
all models, and will be required on all new vehicles by 2012. They shouldn't
be confused with much less effective traction control systems.
This brief but effective
crash course in auto safety takes up just
one web page, which comes out to about four printed
pages. Visitors will also be treated to
some entertaining "spoof tips" that should make them smile.
