Live demos will showcase how Quebecers can be more confident behind the wheel when driving in reverse or changing lanes
MONTREAL, June 13, 2011 /CNW/ - Good visibility is the key to safe driving, but some Quebecers might still be driving blind. New survey results to be released today, will show that Quebec drivers find reversing, changing lanes and blind spots to be the scariest parts of driving and that a significant number have been involved in or witnessed a back-up accident.
Join Canadian Tire in the Back-up Challenge Obstacle Course to test your own back-up skills and get a surprising look at what Canadians are missing in their blind spots. We'll also showcase new automotive safety products that will help drivers stay safe on the roads this summer and all year round.
