0 Are you in the know?
If so, be a deft driyer. “Neat
and skillful in action-—clever.”
That’s how the dictionary defines
“d-e-f-t.”
Deft drivers are superior driv
ers. Be a superior driver, not in7
ferior. 0
Our young people can be and
will be deft drivers, if they get
proper home training on safety
c habits. If these habits are prac
ticed at home every day in every
way these young cpeople will be
come champions.
o Safety in the home is a family
project. A misguided child is like
a misguided. carp It can be a
deadly weapon.
Be smart, r be° safe, be “in the
know.” Be "at home at the wheel
for home: is where your safety
training begins.
