FYI:
Taking a point reduction course does not remove three points from your driving
record. You get a three-point credit on your driving record. Once a fine has
been paid, points for that violation go on your driving record and there is
nothing you can do to get them off. They automatically drop off after three
years. No matter what you may be told by someone to the contrary, it is not so.
SUGGESTION: If this is your first violation, you may want to
plead "not guilty" on your citation. That results in a court hearing and you may
be able to make a deal with the court, prosecutor or police officer. If you are
able to make a deal and a fine
is not paid, points will
not go on your NH driving record. Please contact us at 1-800-332-3748 if you
have any question.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT
HAPPENS IN THE FIRST SECOND AFTER A CAR GOING 55 MPH HITS A SOLID OBJECT?
 |
First tenth of a second - front
bumper and grill collapse.
|
|
Second tenth - hood crumbles, rises
and strikes the windshield, rear wheels lift off the ground, fender s wrap
around the solid object. The car's front end has halted, but the rest of the car
is still going 55 mph.
|
|
Third tenth - steering column aims
for the driver's chest.
|
|
Fourth tenth - two feet of the car's
front end is wrecked - the rest of the car is moving at 35 mph.
|
|
Fifth tenth - brake pedal brakes off
and the car buckles in the middle.
|
|
Sixth tenth - rear wheels, still
spinning, fall back to earth.
|
|
Seventh tenth - hinges rip loose,
doors fly open and seats break free.
|
|
Last three tenths - mean nothing to
the driving who's NOT WEARING A SEAT BELT!

QUICK SAFETY TIPS
In the Parking Lot...
| Always park your vehicle in a well-lit area. Avoid secluded sections,
especially at night. |
| Be aware of your surroundings. Familiarize yourself with the lot and
remember where you parked. |
| When approaching your vehicle, have your keys in hand. Before getting in,
check under the car and in the back seat to make sure there's no one there. |
| Keep your windows rolled up, your doors locked and your front and back
seat free of shopping bags and valuables. |
| If you don't feel safe, ask mall security to walk you to your car. |
