Graham Street • Shelby, NC NO UPFRONT ATTORNEY NO UPFRONT ATTORNEY FEES FOR FILING CHAPTER 13 FEES FOR FILING CHAPTER 13 With the July 4th week- end approaching, Cleve- land County Sheriff Alan Norman asks all citizens to join him in making this Fourth of July holiday happy, enjoyable, and safe for everyone. Cleveland County citi- zens should remember that fireworks, as enjoy- able as they are to watch, can be dangerous and should only be handled by professionals. According to the U.S. Consumer Product and S a f e t y C o m m i s s i o n , there are nearly 13,000 emergency room-treated injuries associated with fireworks a year. You can enjoy a safe Fourth of July by following these safety tips: • Make yourself familiar with GS 14-414 for allow- able fireworks (remember fireworks that detonate, explode, or propel them- selves through the air are illegal) • Never give fireworks to small children • Stay at least 500 feet away from professional fireworks displays. • Leave any area im- mediately where untrained amateurs are using fire- works. Sheriff Norman also wants citizens to use cau- tion when swimming at a pool or driving on busy streets and highways. Sheriff Norman said, "Sadly, most deaths from drowning occur within a few feet of safety." The best thing anyone can do to stay safe in and around the water is to learn to swim. The Red Cross has swimming courses for people of any age and swimming ability. To find out where lessons are offered, or to enroll in a CPR/AED or first aid course, contact your local Red Cross chapter. At a swimming pool, take the following precau- tions: • If no lifeguard is on duty, do not let children swim unless they are ac- companied by a respon- sible adult who knows lifesaving techniques and first aid. • Post CPR instructions and directions to call 9-1-1 or your local emergency number in the pool area. • Look around the pool area to be certain lifesav- ing devices are readily available for emergency use. • Be sure covers are installed on all drains of a swimming pool or in a wading pool. The suc- tion created by the pool's circulating pumps can be dangerous unless it is re- duced by covers. • Take frequent breaks (about once an hour) where everyone gets out of the water, drinks water, reapplies water resistant sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and rests. • If a child is miss- ing, check the pool first. Go to the edge of the pool and scan the entire pool, bottom, and surface, as well as the surrounding pool area. • To reduce the risk of eye, ear, nose or throat in- fection from contaminated water, swim only in pools in which water quality is properly maintained. The water should appear clear, be continuously circu- lated, and be maintained at a level that allows free overflow into the gutter or skimmer. There should not be a strong odor of ammonia or chlorine. On the highways, fol- low these safety tips: • Always shift your at- tention every few sec- onds, constantly scanning the road ahead and be- hind you. Never blankly stare ahead nor fix your gaze on one point on the road. • When passing an au- tomobile, always glance at the ground beside the front wheel of the car you intend to pass. You will know instantly if the car is about to veer - giving you extra seconds to respond. • You should pull out into the opposite lane of traffic when passing while you are still well be- hind the car in front. This should give you some time and space to build up speed and will enable you to pull back into your own lane should the need arise. Never cut abruptly out of your lane into the opposite lane when pass- ing. • Always signal your intentions with your brake lights, turn signals, horn and/or headlights so that other drivers will see you well before you change course. • Drivers should always "aim high" in steering. That is, you should glance frequently at points well ahead of you. Not only will this help your steering, but it will also help you check the position of vehicles in front of you as well as on- coming ones. • Never follow too close. Remember that, as your speed increases, it takes you longer to stop. Also remember that it is good to have an extra cushion of space in front of you if you are being tail-gated, on a slippery road, or in low visibility conditions. "Lastly, I would remind all motorists to practice the Golden Rule when driving. Be courteous and tolerant of other drivers. Please don't get angry with bad drivers or reck- less ones - just get out of their way." Sheriff Norman said in closing, "Following these precautions will help the children and citizens of Cleveland County stay safe and healthy this holiday weekend and throughout the summer."
