"Every
year in Georgia we have numerous fire fatalities in homes that didn't
have smoke alarms, or where the alarms didn't function," Oxendine
said. "If you have a smoke alarm, make sure it's in working order.
Changing the battery at least once every year and cleaning dust from
the device is an easy way to ensure continued protection of your family
and your property. Having a working smoke alarm doubles the chances
you will survive a fire in your home."
The commissioner
added that families should plan and rehearse an escape route and a meeting
place outside the home that they can use in the event of a fire.
Daylight
saving time starts Sunday, April 1 at 2 a.m., when clocks are set ahead
