Cleveland County citizens should remember that fi reworks, as en- joyable as they are to watch, can be dangerous and should only be handled by professionals. According to the U.S. Consumer Prod- uct and Safety Commission, there are nearly 13,000 emergency room-treated injuries associated with fi reworks a year. You can en- joy a safe Fourth of July by following these safety tips: • Make yourself familiar with GS 14-414 for allowable fi reworks (remember fi reworks that detonate, explode or propel themselves through the air are illegal) • Never give fi reworks to small children • Stay at least 500 feet away from professional fi reworks displays. • Leave any area immediately where untrained amateurs are using fi reworks. Sheriff Norman also wants citizens to use caution when swimming at a pool or driving on busy streets and high- ways. 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 fi nd out where lessons are offered, or to enroll in a CPR/AED or fi rst aid course, contact your local Red Cross chapter. At a swimming pool, take the following precautions: • If no lifeguard is on duty, do not let children swim unless they are accompanied by a responsible adult who knows lifesaving techniques and fi rst 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 lifesaving 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 suction created by the pool's circulating pumps can be very dangerous unless it is reduced 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 missing, check the pool fi rst. 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 infection from contaminated water, swim only in pools in which water quality is properly maintained. The water should appear crystal clear, be continuously circulated and be maintained at a level that allows free overfl ow into the gutter or skimmer. There should not be a strong odor of ammonia or chlorine. On the highways, follow these safety tips: • Always shift your attention every few seconds, constantly scanning the road ahead and behind you. Never blankly stare ahead nor fi x your gaze on one point on the road. • When passing an automobile, 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 an extra few seconds to respond. • You should pull out into the opposite lane of traffi c when passing while you are still well behind 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 passing. • 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 substantially longer to stop. Also remember that it's good to have an extra cushion of space in front of you if you're 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 reckless 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."
