"Anyone who has lost a loved one to a motor vehicle crash knows all too well the immense, devastatingly real and truly tragic impact it has on families, friends, neighbors and entire communities. From buckling up, slowing down and driving free of distraction and impairment to demanding safer roads and safer speeds, we all can and must take action to be safe. The lives of our loved ones may depend on it," said Mark Chung, Executive Vice President of Roadway Practice at NSC. #RoadwaySafety #SafetyForAll NSC estimates that 599 lives may be lost in preventable traffic crashes over the #FourthofJuly weekend. The holiday period begins the evening of July 3 and ends just before midnight on July 7. Learn more here and #JustDrive: https://lnkd.in/gwMF62Fp.
