NASCAR’s Safe Driving Tips

06-22-18    

Nascar Race

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA) and NASCAR have teamed up to promote vehicle safety. In 2015, our nation lost 35,092 in crashes across the U.S. ending a five-decade trend of declining fatalities. To help drivers stay safe, the NHTSA and NASCAR collaborated to address important issues facing drivers and to increase vehicle safety. With practical safety tips on topics like seat belts, recalls, tire safety, distractions and safety ratings, the program is sure to save lives.

Buckle Up. Every Trip. Every Time.

By far the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones in the car is the simple act of buckling up. Surprisingly, many Americans choose to forego a seatbelt when driving. You will never see a NASCAR driver without a buckled seat belt. Many people don’t know that wearing a seat belt can reduce the risk of fatal injury by 45%.

End Distracted Driving.

Distracted driving is the most dangerous threats we face when driving on the roads today. At any given moment across America, approximately 660,000 drivers are using or manipulating electronic devices while driving, and that number is on the rise.

Tire Wise. Tire Safe.

Whether you’re driving to work or a NASCAR car driver, the condition of your tires is critical. Under-inflated tires and overloaded vehicles can cause tires to fail. Prevent tire blowout by checking the condition of your tires on a regular basis.

5-Star Safety Ratings

NHTSA’s 5-Star Safety Ratings Program provides information about crash protection and rollover safety of new vehicles. If you are in the market for a new car, be sure to take advantage of this free tool that will provide invaluable information.

Regular Recall Checks

The NHTSA also has a free VIN lookup tool you can use to check for safety recalls on your vehicle. Just enter your VIN number and the program will let you know if there are any open recalls. Best practice is to check your vehicle’s status a few times a year. If your vehicle is under recall, you simply contact your local dealership to schedule an appointment for a free repair.
