You don’t see penguins slip & fall on ice.
Know why?
- They walk flat footed
- They take short steps
- They walk with their arms at their sides (not in their pockets)
- They concentrate on maintaining balance
Avoid slips, sprains and strains by watching out for snow-covered/black ice and uneven surfaces, checking your tread, practicing defensive walking and also walking like a penguin!
