According
to the Centers for Disease Control, 34 percent of adult Americans are obese
whereas just 15 percent were in the 1970s. And remember, we’re talking about
being obese, not being overweight.
Backup collisions are when a driver puts the automobile in reverse and runs into an object, person, or other car. All cars are equipped with rear view mirrors which are adequate for detecting vehicles behind a car, but they are often inadequate when it comes to detecting small children or objects that are low to the ground and fall in the car’s blind spot. Large trucks have much larger blind spots that can hide entire vehicles and large adults.
