CarFit event helps to keep Vestal senior citizens safe

UHS Trauma Services & Injury Prevention joined Broome County Traffic Safety to hold a CarFit event Wednesday, July 12 at the Vestal Senior Center.

CarFit is a national program developed by AAA, AARP and the American Occupational Therapy Association and designed to give a quick, yet comprehensive check on how well an older driver and their vehicle work together using a 12-point checklist.

There's a lot more to safe driving than how you drive. Having the proper fit inside your vehicle can make a big difference and help protect you and those around you.  At a CarFit Event, trained experts show you how to enhance your comfort, safety and fit within your vehicle.
