Get defensive behind the wheel

In 2012, someone died on Texas roads every day. One person was killed every two hours and 35 minutes. Approximately 45 percent of the victims were not wearing seat belts.

Drivers who buckle up, avoid distractions, control their speed and never get behind the wheel while tired improve their chances of getting from Point A to Point B safely.

Remember, though, that other drivers’ actions can affect your safety as much as your own actions can. Texas Mutual encourages employers to teach and enforce these defensive driving behaviors in their workplaces.

Burglary facts

According to Alarm Org:

  • A burglary occurs every 15 seconds.
  • Around 60% of burglars use forcible entry to gain access to a home. More than 30% of burglars enter residences through an unlocked door, window and other opening without force.
  • Typically, burglars spend less than 60 seconds breaking into a home. The more difficult it is to gain access, the more likely a burglar will reconsider the attack.
  • Most convicted burglars (90%) say they avoid homes with alarm.
  • About 74% of uncompleted intrusions can be credited to an audible alarm.
  • Homes without alarm systems are three times more likely to be burglarized than those with an alarm system.
