Lessons in safety from a military training film. An army truck/ jeep drives along a tree lined rural road, ignoring the speed limit and “soft shoulder” signs. The wheels get caught in the shoulder, pulling the car off the road slightly. CU of a leather shoe slamming on the brakes. The truck tumbles off the road, flipping over down the embankment. In the aftermath, the body of the sargeant is put on a stretcher and his face covered by the blanket. Hap, the driver, bruised but fine, looks sad. A man at the US Army safety office sits at his desk and lectures about accident prevention, common sense, and responsibility.
