Saved by the Belt
Samantha L. Gallagher was awarded the Saved by the Belt award after she was involved in a crash on April 23rd, 2010. She was stopped in traffic on Roberts Road about 50 feet south of 95th Street when a vehicle rear-ended her, pushing her vehicle into another car which was directly in front of her. She had damage to her vehicle in excess of $7,000 but she was wearing her seat belt and she came away from the crash without a scratch. The Saved By The Belt award recognizes drivers who through no fault of their own were involved in serious car crashes which, had they not been wearing their safety belt, they would have resulted in serious injuries. 20 years of Service
