Statistics

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reports that hospitals emergency rooms treat more than 400,000 outdoor garden-tool-related accidents each year. That works out to be 33,333 accidents per month; 1,095 accidents per day, 45 accidents per hour, and about 1 accident every minute. Furthermore, it is recognized that most yard accidents tend to take place during the Spring and Summer months. Thus, these numbers are even more pronounced during these peak yard work seasons of the year. Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man cautions yard equipment operators to learn and prepare before operating power equipment and performing yard work. Think before you cut. It hurts.
