Long ago there lived a fisherman in a hut by the sea. He had a wife and three children. He made
living catching fish and selling them.
One day he cast his net into the sea and pulled out a brass jar instead of fish.
He uncorked the jar to find out what was inside. At once smoke came out and rose to the sky.
After a while, the smoke took the shape of a giant.

The fisherman trembled at the sight. He grew even more terrified when the giant thundered, I am
going to kill you!
Why? cried the fisherman. What have I done? In fact, I have saved you. I have set you free
from the jar.
I am going to kill you! the giant shot back.

It can barely contain one of your toes! How could it contain your whole body?
Dont you believe that I was in it? cried the giant.
I cannot believe until I see you in it, answered the fisherman.
The giant grew angry. You fool, said he, see how I can get into the jar, and turned once more
into smoke, and grew smaller and smaller till he entered the jar.
At once the fisherman put the cork back on the jar and said, Stay there forever. I am going to
throw you back into the sea.
No, no ! cried the giant. Open the jar, and I will give you great gifts.

Each year more than 30,000 drivers and front seat passengers killed in accidents are not
wearing seat belts whereas failure to wear a seat belt contributes to fatalities. At a speed of only
30 miles per hour, it is the same as falling from a thirdfloor building. Wearing a seat belt
saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than a half.
Drivers or front seat passengers have to wear seat belts in most vehicles. If you are 14 or
over, it will be your responsibility to wear the seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined up. It

will be the driver's responsibility to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front
unless they are wearing a seat belt.
Being thrown from a moving vehicle is the number one cause of death in car crashes. Staying
inside the vehicle is your best chance of survival. Safety belts are designed to keep you inside the
vehicle, where there's room to live.
However, you don't have to wear a seat belt in certain circumstances. For example, if you are
reversing your vehicle, or making a local delivery using a vehicle constructed or adapted for
that purpose. Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat
belt.
In addition, certain people are prohibited to wear a seat belt because of their health.
These people will not have to wear a seat belt if they get a valid medical certificate from a
doctor, but they should be able to show it to the police whenever necessary.
