_______________________________________________________________________

Because of the new gun laws and stricter rules regarding ammunition, Hijackers have turned their attention to using Pool Acid, this acid is kept in a syringe or even a small plastic and then used to blind daze and disorientate the driver of the vehicle, it also assists them with getting away from the scene more readily.

Please do not wind down your windows ,even a small bit at any intersections whatsoever.Please see below attached report from Discovery Health lets be careful out there!!!

Gavin Osmond (one of our engineers at Discovery) was involved in an attempted hi-jacking on Wednesday night in Rivonia, where a young perfectly nice-looking white guy convinced him into winding down his window at a robot, informed him that he wanted his car and then threw ACID IN HIS FACE!!!

Gavin's face was burned extensively and the membranes have been burned off his eyes.

10 BASIC SAFETY TIPS >>

#1 Don't drive like you own the road; drive like you own the car.
#2 Always wear your seat belt--and make sure all passengers buckle up, too.
#3 Adjust your car's headrest to a height behind your head--not your neck--to minimize whiplash in case you're in an accident.
#4 Never try to fit more people in the car than you have seatbelts for them to use.
#5 Obey the speed limits, Going too fast gives you less time to stop or react. Excess speed is one of the main causes of accidents.
#6 Don't go through red lights.
#7 Indicate your intention to turn or to change lanes well in advance - this gives the cars behind you enough time to react before you take the action.
#8 Make sure your windscreen is clean. At sunrise and sunset, light reflecting off your dirty windscreen can momentarily blind you from seeing what's going on.
#9 Make sure your car has petrol in it. Unfortunately, getting stranded these days can be dangerous and its always best to avoid it.
#10 Don't drink and drive, and don't ride with anyone who has been drinking. Call parents or friends to take you home if you need a ride.
