OTHER DRIVERS SAFE
the same responsibilities and rights as vehicles to use the roadway, it’s also up to drivers to be aware of the cyclists. Keep a safe, respectful distance from them, and if you have to pass a cyclist, give them plenty of room and pass carefully. Be Aware of Other Drivers
TAKE A BREAK
In addition to people dropping off school kids or going to work in the mornings, student drivers may be more active on the road. Teens with new licenses are experiencing the freedom of driving for the first time and might
not be as wary as they ought to be on the road. Make sure you stay focused and aware of the drivers around you so you can react quickly to keep yourself, the other driver, and your passengers safe.

TYPES OF NURSING HOME ABUSE
1. In a bowl, add all ingredients except cayenne and whisk until well mixed. If desired, add cayenne pepper a little at a time until you reach your preferred level of spiciness. 2. Serve immediately or, for an even better taste and texture, refrigerate for 1–2 days.
People might think that nursing home abuse is physical, but that’s not always the case. In fact, any situation causing a resident undue emotional and even financial distress is still abuse. Some specific examples of abuse include the following:
•
Assaults or attacks on the resident
3. You may increase the batch size, but keep the ratio of oil and vinegar the same — 2-to-1. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 months.
