MICHIGAN SAFE DRIVING TIPS FOR THE WINTER SEASON The Department of State and the Michigan Sheriffs' Association recommend the following tips to keep you and your family safe while driving in winter weather:

• No matter the season, drinking and driving is dangerous and illegal.

• Make sure your vehicle is in good working order.

• Have working wiper blades • Fill up on antifreeze and window-washer fluid • Check for proper tire inflation • Ensure your battery has sufficient charge • Keep an emergency kit ready in your vehicle. It should include: • A blanket or warm clothes (boots, coat, gloves) • A flashlight • Jumper cables • Tow rope • Shovel • Bag of sand or cat litter for traction • Battery-operated radio • State map to use in case of a detour • Snacks such as raisins, candy bars or other items that store well

• To avoid slipping off the roadway, drive more slowly and give yourself more room to stop.

• Brake gently to prevent skidding

• If your vehicle does get stuck: • Never spin your wheels. That only digs the tires in more deeply • Use a shovel to dig around the wheels and undercarriage • Turn the steering wheel from side to side to clear snow away from the front tires • Gently ease the vehicle out • If that doesn't work, try rocking the vehicle by shifting into forward and giving it some gas and then shifting it into reverse and accelerating until the vehicle is free

• Let other people know your travel plans so if you don't arrive they'll know where to start looking.

• Tell people the route you plan to take • Make sure your vehicle has fresh air if you become stuck by checking the exhaust system to see if it's plugged by snow.

• Open a window or turn off your car if necessary • Carbon monoxide produced by your vehicle is a colorless, odorless gas that can kill • Check the news for weather reports or visit weather sites such as www.weather.gov.

HOW OLDER DRIVERS CAN APPROACH VEHICLE MAINTENANCE AND SOCIAL DISTANCING

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 in the winter of 2019-20 required people of all ages and backgrounds to make changes in their daily lives. Elderly men and women were among the groups the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention identified as high-risk for severe illness from COVID19. That forced people 65 years and older to be especially cautious when engaging in otherwise normal activities, including having their vehicles serviced.

In recognition of the threat posed by COVID19, many auto dealerships and service shops implemented changes to their operations to ensure the safety of their employees and their customers, including those in high-risk groups. Seniors can take additional measures to ensure they stay safe while having their vehicles serviced.

• Inquire about safety measures. Before booking vehicle maintenance appointments, seniors should call the dealership or body shop to determine what’s being done to keep everyone safe. Many such businesses quickly implemented new safety protocols so they should be ready and willing to share this information over the phone. Look for specific information about sanitization practices. Are vehicle interiors being sprayed with disinfectant before and after maintenance appointments? Are employees wearing masks each day? Are employees being checked for COVID-19 symptoms before each shift? These are some of the simple yet effective measures many dealerships and

body shops are taking to ensure the safety of their customers.

• Ask about pickup service. Some communities that have reopened are encouraging high-risk segments of the population to adhere to stay-at-home measures. Elderly men and women are still vulnerable to COVID-19 even if the number of reported cases in their towns has decreased. Pickup service, in which a service shop employee will come pick up and then drop off a customer’s car once the work is done, can be a great way for elderly drivers to have their vehicles serviced without going out in public. Even if pickup is not policy, ask if it’s possible and request that your vehicle be disinfected upon being returned. If pickup is not an option, ask a younger friend or family member to drive your car in for maintenance in your place.

• Only visit safe facilities. Elderly drivers who must visit a dealership or body shop in person should confirm that waiting rooms feature socially distant seating. If possible, drop the car off and then go for a walk or find somewhere safe off the premises to read a book or listen to music while the work is being done.

Elderly drivers who need to have their vehicles serviced can take certain steps to stay safe in the era of social distancing.

Winter...Auto Care I NOVEMBER 14, 2020 I COMMUNITY SHOPPERS GUIDE...OTSEGO, MI 49078

DID YOU KNOW? Drivers may benefit by changing their tires when seasons change. Winter tires perform better when temperatures remain below 45 F and not just when it is snowing, which is why using the term “snow tires” is a bit of a misnomer. Regular tires, sometimes referred to as “summer” tires, tend to work better when the mercury climbs, as the rubber can become inflexible in colder temperatures. Despite the name, all-season tires do not necessarily make them superior in all seasons. They tend to offer better grip in snow than summer tires, but according to Popular Mechanics, they do not perform as well when roads are damp,

such as during spring. Still, many people who prefer one tire type for the entire year often find all-season tires adequate. However, for those who live in regions where snowfall is rare, regular summer tires will fit the bill for most driving conditions until temperatures plummet. Then it’s worth switching to winter tires. If motorists are particularly concerned with improving water displacement on wet roadways, they can select tires that have specific tread patterns designed to evenly redistribute water as the tire hits the pavement.

Safety features that may help you save money on auto insurance

Vehicles with high safety ratings may not only save drivers’ lives in the event of collisions, but they also may save them money. As an incentive for buying cars with various safety features, many insurance companies offer deep discounts to drivers. Although insurance companies may vary in what they consider safety features, the following are generalized options that may qualify drivers for discounted insurance rates.

• Antilock braking system: These systems have been standard equipment on vehicles manufactured since 2012.

• Air bags: These safety features help cushion the blow for people during a crash and include front and side-protection. Discounts increase with the number of air bags.

• Adaptive cruise control: This feature monitors traffic conditions and adjusts speed by controlling the throttle and brakes to maintain distance from other vehicles.

• Daytime running lights: Daytime running lights may make drivers eligible for small discounts.

• Electronic stability control: This prevents vehicles from skidding out or rolling over during hard turns.

• Lane departure warnings: These systems alert drivers if they get too close to the edge of a lane.

• Blind spot sensors: These sensors light up or make a sound when a vehicle is in drivers’ blind spots, potentially preventing collisions during lane changes. FC19A301

He was born March 15, 1941 in Plainwell, MI, the son of William and Sarah Robertson. Jim grew up in Gobles and after school joined the army and served in Germany. He then drove truck across country over forty years. Jim acquired his first million mile safety award early on and we don't know how many million more he actually drove.Tim enjoyed coffee with friends and family. He could be found working on someone's car or helping remodel homes. He enjoyed fishing and later in life, cooking as he had so many meals on the road! He also enjoyed an occasional trip to the casino and gardening. Jim was preceded in death by his parents and grandparents. Surviving Jim are his siblings: sisters Nancy (Earl) Healy and Judy Robertson and brother Bill Robertson as well as many nieces and nephews (great and great-great). He loved them all.

Also surviving is special friend Lora Mooney and family and countless other friends. Cremation has taken place. Graveside interment and a luncheon will be held in the spring for family and friends.

Helen went to be with her Lord Sunday, November 8, 2020. She was born September 4, 1926 in Kalamazoo, the daughter of Edward and Ruby (Price) Ordiway.

Helen was a lifelong resident of Alamo Township. She was a hard worker and enjoyed taking care of the garden, her home and her family. On June 28, 1945 in Kalamazoo she married William Kingsbury who passed away in 2007. Surviving are her children, William (Sonja) Kingsbury of Bronson, Ruby Boers of Plainwell, Gerry Crockett of Wisconsin, Helen Casey of Florida and John (Nicolle) Kingsbury of Alamo; many grandchildren and great-grandchildren; her sister, Onalee Potter of Alamo along with many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; granddaughter, Heidi Kingsbury; sonin-law, John Boers and siblings, Raymond, Edward “Jay” and Dorothy.

“THE EXTRA IN ORDINARY”

By Rev. Dan Minor - revdminor1945@gmail.com _____________________________________

“… This is what the kingdom of God is like.

A man scatters seed on the ground” (Mark 4:26)

The story of the Bible is how God used ordinary persons to do extraordinary things. God specializes in ordinary.

A shepherd boy (David) became one of the greatest kings who ever reigned on earth. Our Savior’s birth was first announced to ordinary shepherds as they kept watch over their flocks by night. He was not born in a palace but in a stable.

Our Lord came from an ordinary town (Nazareth). As a young man He worked as a carpenter. Jesus called common ordinary men to follow Him. During His ministry on earth Jesus told stories about ordinary people including farmers in a field, fishermen on a lake, a Good Samaritan stopping to give help and children playing in the marketplace. He preached eternal truths using common illustrations.

For example, He said that building a life is like building a house. He compared the Kingdom of God to planting seeds in a field. The Bible says “… the common people heard him gladly” (Mark 12:37).

Winning their support laid the foundation for the church.

The point is we do not have to be persons with great wealth, many talents or of high position in order to serve God. This is because God puts the extra in ordinary. The presence of God’s Spirit empowers every day common ordinary people to do extraordinary things.

One of the great Christian influences of the 20th century was the late Billy Graham. In his later years, the renowned world-wide evangelist said, “I have often said that the first thing I am going to do when I get to Heaven is to ask, “Why me, Lord? Why did You choose a farm boy from North Carolina to preach to so many people … to have a part in what You were doing in the latter half of the twentieth century?” (A quote from his autobiography, “Just As I Am”).

Many of us grew up watching, what I like to call, clean humor on television. One of the great comedy shows of all time was “The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show” (l950-1958). In one episode Gracie called in a repairman to fix her electric clock. The repairman fiddled with it for a while and then told her, “There’s nothing wrong with the clock; you just didn’t have it plugged in.” Gracie replied, “I don’t want to waste electricity, so I only plug it in when I want to know what time it is!”

We will always do extraordinary things for God when we remember to plug into His amazing power!

The good news is that God “is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us…”

(Ephesians 3:20) Prayer: Dear Lord, fill us with Your amazing power and we will do great things for Your glory. In Your strong name. Amen.

Fall Leaf Pick Up 2020 REMINDER OF PICK UP PROCEDURES

November 14th-21st is National Homelessness Awareness Week LOOK FOR THE PURPLE RIBBONS AROUND TOWN!

What does homelessness look like in our area?

It looks like an elderly couple on social security who were evicted in February and have been living in their car ever since because they can't find affordable housing in our area. We are helping them secure housing now.

It looks like a couple with bad credit that are living in a storage unit. They come in for food and request canned goods that can be eaten out of the container because they don't have a way to prepare food.

It looks like a mother who only has her children when she has a place to sleep that night and relies on family and friends so her kids can visit with her.

We have helped 42 families so far this year who do not have a place to call home. We have prevented homelessness for many families by stopping evictions with rental assistance and by providing first month's rent to secure housing.

This good boy is named Blue

ADOPTABLE Pet of the Week!

Blue is a German Shepard mix, just over 2 years old and weighs approximately 70 pounds. He has been trained to sit and shake when asked so he has some of the basics under his belt already. Blue is a happy, cuddly guy who enjoys being loved up and going for walks.

Although Blue will need to be the only pet in his forever home, he is a great doggy and will be sure to bring plenty of love to his forever family. Blue can be a bit timid around new people, but he warms up quickly. Due to his reserved nature, it is recommended that any children in his home are older teenagers.

Blue would love a forever home with you! To learn more about Blue or to fill out an online adoption application, visit wishbonepetrescue.org.

The Allegan County Animal Shelter is operated by Wishbone Pet Rescue Alliance.
