Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when unde r the influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to ope rate your vehi-

Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistake s that other
drivers or pedestrians might m ake and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that
distracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serio us injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regarding children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to
have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by p laying with
