Private First Class Christina M Gaizick of Fairfax County Police Traffic Safety Services spoke at the Lions dinner meeting on August 21st.
Private First Class Christina M Gaizick
Christina gave us a wonderful refresher on safe driving, including updates due to technology. For example, instead of the placing your hands at the 10 and 2 o’clock positions on the steering wheel (as most of us were taught), the recommendation now is 4 and 8 o’clock. This is to reduce the chance of air-bags forcing your hands back into your face in an accident. And, with 4 and 8 positions, “shuffle steer” the wheel thru your hands when turning – no hand-over-hand movements.
