_ Buckle up; it's worth it Submitted by Const. Bert Logan (Schreiber OPP Community Services Officer) Seat belts are a must, but wear them properly! 1, The lap belt should be worn snug and low over the hips. 2. The shoulder belt, if adjustable, may be worn loose enough to allow an inch or two between the chest and the belt. Wear your seat belt for every good reason ¢ Seat belts reduce changes of injury and death by 50 per cent. Properly buckled in with both lap and shoulder belts, you could walk away from accidents that otherwise would be fatal. «Most injuries and deaths result from moderate-speed accidents close to home. * Many people think they can pro- tect themselves in a collision. But even in a low-speed crash an unbelted person hits the inside of the car with a force of several thou- sand pounds. 'In a collision, front seat unbelted occupants can be thrown against the driver, or through the wind- shield. Backseat passengers can be tossed forward, striking or crushing those in the front seat. *Seat belts keep the driver: behind the wheel and in control of the car. *Fire or submersion in water is very rare in accidents. Even in such cases, seat belts are an advantage because they help you to remain conscious and thus get free of the car. *Pregnant women should always wear the lap and shoulder belt when riding a car. It's important that the belt be worn properly. 1. Set the lap belt low, so it pulls downward on the pelvic bones, not against the abdomen. i 2. Wear the seat belt assembly as snug as possible without being comfortable. Always consult your doctor if involved in an accident. Test your seat belt knowledge Q. The seat belts in my car aren't working. Must I have them repaired? A. Yes Schreiber winners of the recent Fun Run are (1-1): Winnie Campbell, senior ladies; Teddy Tomson, youngest participant (with mother Terry holding him); and Fred Harness, senior men. Owner hopes to continued from page 1 availability of water is always a concer, but in this particular case there was not much the firefighters could have done because of the intensity of the blaze. "There's always a problem when we have no water," said Chief Stachiw. "The situation I had was to contain it to one area. We knew it was totally engulfed." No injuries were reported, and there will be no investigation by the Fire Marshall's Office. John Trichilo, owner of John's Texaco, said isn't quite sure of how the fire began. He told the News he was cutting a pipe on an exhaust system when he turned around and saw flames. Fire damage was contained to the bays of the building; however, the rest of the' building did receive Q. Are all car drivers responsible for their passengers buckling up? A. Not if passengers are over 16 years of age. However, drivers are responsible for children from birth up to 16-years-old. Q. I suffer from claustrophobia. Must I buckle up? A. If for any physical or psycholog- ical reason you feel you can't buck- le up, see a doctor. If he considers .there to be medical grounds, he can provide you with a certificate stat- ing that you do not have to buckle up. This would exempt you. Q. Iam a taxi driver. Must my pas- sengers buckle up? A. Yes. You may remove the shoul- der harness from the driver's posi- tion if you wish. The lap belt does not have to be worn while trans- porting passengers. Q. I drive a vehicle on a delivery route. Must I buckle up? A. On the trip to your drop-off area, yes. But in your drop-off zone, if your delivery speed while driving does not exceed 40 km/h, and if you are frequently getting in and out of your vehicle, you are exempt. Q. My child has outgrown the tod- dler seat. Is there a larger seat on the market, or can I use a cushion under the child. A. Booster seats designed especial- ly for use in cars are available. They can be used for a child weighing over 18 kg. Q. My children are restless, so do I have to keep them in their seat belts? A. It is a fact that child safety seats reduce deaths by 90 per cent and crippling injuries by 70 per cent. You never know when a crash might happen, so it's important for your child to use a child safety seat whenever travelling in a vehicle. Please take an extra second and buckle your children's seat belts and then your own. It may save your life!! rebuild smoke damage. The three full-time and four part-time employees of the busi- ness will have a bit of time off as Mr. Trichilo evaluates the situation. The building is leased from Texaco, and he said he is not sure of particular arrangements. "T have to wait and see what happens," he said. "I hope (to rebuild) anyway."

Demand for services increasing continued from page 5 "With government pushing for integration and mainstreaming, more and more families are being challenged by the constant need to find resources to help them take care of their physically disabled child," said Joe Cashen, director of services. "As a result, we are finding that our services are increasingly in demand and for more prolonged periods of time." Closing down institutions and special-care facilities is another reason for the increased demand on Easter Seal services. Families with special-needs children at home require readily available and reli- able support services if they are to manage well, not just in terms of the physically disabled child, but also in terms of the whole family's needs. The presence of a physically disabled child adds a dimension to family dynamics that places many parents and their children at risk. The demands made on the fami- ly are financial and emotional. "We are delighted Ontarians have made it possible for us to grow and change as society demands, and we hope that they will continue to support us as we work to provide the services need- ed for today and tomorrow," said Cashen.
