When I got to begin my work week yesterday, I had no idea I would be drunk by 1 p.m. About half way through my shift, I decided to jump behind a wheel and drive through a residential part of town. I managed to drive through people's lawns, run various stop signs, hit a couple of innocent pedestrians and even strike a poor little dog trying to cross the road. Fortunately my driving escapades were connected with my use of the driving simulator at the DriveWise Driver Education Centre in Chatham.]]> http://www.drivewisecanada.com/news_details.php?nID=161

The proposed legislation includes zero blood-alcohol limit for all Ontario drivers aged 21 and under, and escalating sanctions for young drivers who speed, starting with a 30-day licence suspension. Drivers between 16 and 19 years old will be limited to having only one teenaged passenger in the vehicle. Premier Dalton McGuinty said it's all about saving lives.]]> http://www.drivewisecanada.com/news_details.php?nID=157
Driving and operating emergency vehicles is demanding and requires a high level of skill, training and ability. In addition to high volumes of traffic, our personnel must be able to safely drive large, complex fire apparatus in all kinds of weather, at any time of the day and night, in all weather conditions. In 2006, Ajax fore & Emergency Services launched the Advanced Emergency Vehicle Operator Training Program.

At the rather gentle speed of 50 kilometres an hour, a car will travel 30 metres in just two seconds. In that blink of an eye, lives can be changed forever, as was the case on Sept. 30th 2008 when a 79-year-old woman was struck and killed by a 16-year-old driver who lost control of the car he was driving along Heather Way]]> http://www.drivewisecanada.com/news_details.php?nID=153
