With the holiday season upon us, the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) is urging drivers to prevent tragedy on the roads by putting safety first and to avoid all driver distractions.
ASSE notes that tragedies on the roadways result in the annual deaths of more than 40,000 people, along with injuries to hundreds of thousands more. Moreover, traffic crashes are the number one cause of on-the-job deaths, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.
