CRASH COURSES 157 Causes of Collisions and How to Prevent Them

Article received from Robert Beauchemin:

image Attention Mr. Eric Manherz we have just finished another website for a retired professor, who is changing his ways from mathematics and science to writing books, this is a great book and Mr. Hayduk has spent an enormous amount of time researching and writing the book. It is very unique as a teaching manual for any drivers, whether seniors, or new novices, automobile or truck drivers.

The Author: As a chemical engineer, Walter Hayduk taught at the University of Ottawa for 28 years before retiring. His lifelong interest in traffic safety led him to write this BOOK, which contains a wealth of information describing how drivers may operate their vehicles more safely. Walter Hayduk is now working on a second book this time it will be a novel, but he cannot discuss too many details as yet, since he is stil researching the material for the new novel. please visit his website at http://walterhayduk.tripod.com (be prepared for some loud sounds) or write to him at popyk@magma.ca

This Article submitted by: Bob Beauchemin (3 weeks ago you generously published an article from an 84 year old lady, written by her 11 year old daughter 40 years ago, she is having a second edition reprinted the first sold out in 3 months, she got a great response from your website, as I could see on the counter which analyses who is hitting the web site or what website it came from! Thank you loads. we regularly surf your site.)

The BOOK "CRASH COURSES 157 Causes of Collisions and How to Prevent Them" explores the many possibilities for unexpected hazards and guides us to safe driving practices. Examples of impediments to driving safely, in addition to speeding and following too closely, include driver distractions such as animated conversations with passengers, being tired, angry or in a hurry to name a few. Whether young, mature or senior drivers, we need to study our driving and make necessary changes. This BOOK can reduce the injuries and save lives.
