Boating safety officials hope a new life jacket loaner program will help continue a steady decline in the the number of serious and fatal boat accidents on Arizona lakes.MOTO-1 Super motorbike scanner, All Line Motorcycle Diagnostic Scanner
Officials from several agencies, including Arizona Game and Fish Department and Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, used Memorial Day weekend to kick off the new program, in which officers patrolling lakes will keep life vests on board to loan to boaters who don’t have sufficient life jackets of their own.
Kevin Bergersen, the boating law administrator for the game and fish department, said under the program people now will be able to stay out on the water if they don’t have life vests, and in some cases may avoid citation. “It also prevents a tragedy from occurring before it even starts,” Bergersen said. But the numbers have decreased steadily over the years. source:http://www.obd2au.com/blog/?p=56
