In an effort raise an awareness for key safety issues, the National Safety Council has dubbed June ‘National Safety Month.’ While the campaign targets a variety of issues, perhaps one of the most important for Little Rock residents to consider is road safety. A recent statistical projection by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates a total of 32,850 traffic fatalities due to motor vehicle crashes in 2013. Unfortunately, sometimes even the safest driver’s find themselves in auto accidents.
