Officer Bean's Safety Tip

1) One point I'd like you to remember is that when you are approaching an intersection where you have the right of way, make eye contact with the driver about to enter the intersection. He may not see you.
2) Always practice defensive driving. Keeping in mind that all drivers make mistakes. There is no such thing as a perfect driver.
