WORD(s) OF THE DAY
invective \in-VEK-tiv\
: Insulting or abusive language.


S.A TRIVIA QUESTION
What petroleum company used coal to create petrol, during the boycott of trade to South Africa?
A – BP B – Sasol C - Shell

Here’s some info:
The history of Sasol began in 1927 when a White Paper was tabled in Parliament to investigate the establishment of a South African oil-from-coal industry.
It was realised then that, because South Africa did not have crude oil reserves, the country's balance of payments had to be protected against increasing crude oil imports. After many years of research and international negotiations, the South African Coal Oil and Gas Corporation was formed in 1950.

DID YOU KNOW
Beetles taste like apples, wasps like pine nuts, and worms like fried bacon. Also did you know Like fingerprints, everyone's tongue print is different!

TIP OF THE DAY
Tips for staying safe on the road


Fatigue
Do not drive at times when you would normally be asleep.

Alcohol
Plan ahead to avoid driving if you are going to be drinking alcohol. Alcohol can also cause adverse reactions with some medications. If you are unsure, do not drive and consult your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

Following distance
As we get older our reaction times gets slower. Leave at least a two second gap between the car ahead and your own. In wet weather, when driving at night or in low visibility, allow a four second gap in wet weather, at night, when towing, and when you are unfamiliar with the road.

Use daytime running lights
This makes it easier for your car to be seen by other drivers and will make it easier for you to see on a dull day.

Head checks
It is important to turn your head to check for vehicles in your blind spot, especially when merging, changing lanes or before moving off at an intersection. Try turning from the waist to make this easier.

Take your time
It is easy to feel pressured to increase speed if there is a line of traffic behind you, or a car tailgating. Pull off the road to let them pass if you need to.

Heavy traffic
Sitting in heavy traffic can be frustrating and make progress slow. Avoid driving in peak hour traffic if possible.

Long trips
Make sure you have a good night’s sleep before you leave and plan regular rest and refreshment breaks during the journey.
