As some might know, this club lost two wonderful people in the accident  (Pictures above) and we will do everything we possibly can to prevent another. That is the goal of this portion of the web site and we will be posting much more on safety items as we progress through this.

What a speaker and also what a gentleman.
Trooper Alexander provided numerous items of highway safety and avoiding road rage incidents as well as examples when to call 911 on different types of road safety problems.
He was deluged with questions from the membership and he hung in there like a Real Trooper and gave excellent answers and explanations of each one. I think all in attendance gained a lot of information from this presentation. Al Rapp (A member of our club) asked several questions regarding tours with 15 or 20 cars and we were provided with excellent advice on this along with other items.
I just can not say enough about this presentation except that, if anyone has an opportunity to include their law enforcement agency like the State Patrol, it would definitely be worth the time and effort.
  As we get more information on SAFETY we will post it as soon as we can. Below you will find links that will take you to different topic. We want to thank all the people that have contributed to this topic. Safety should be at the top of all of our lists. 

IF YOU HAVE INFORMATION OR GUIDANCE ON THIS SUBJECT THAT YOU WOULD SHARE, I WILL BE MOST HAPPY TO ADD IT TO THIS SITE.
Thank you,  Dick Burton
