PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Memorial Day weekend is a time when we travel to family, friends and vacation spots — especially on the highways. It is important that wherever you are going, you travel safely.
There are some key things to remember:
1. Make certain that everyone is wearing seat belts, and the driver needs to be alcohol-free — especially when you consider that others might not be alcohol-free.
2. If you are having a picnic, it is critical to keep foods at the correct temperature and know the potential risks for food poisoning. Download this app for helpful information that you can use to make your picnic as safe as possible.
