Traffic safety night at Camden Yards

Otto the Auto Going to see the Orioles tomorrow night? AAA Mid-Atlantic reports that the game against the Washington Nationals is "traffic safety night," which might be a good opportunity for passive-aggressive education of your teen or tween about being safe in and around cars.

There will be traffic safety tips offered and several vehicles to see there, including Otto the Auto, a 3-foot-tall remote controlled talking car, along with a AAA stock car that has a racing simulator.

AAA members can purchase upper-reserve tickets for $6, and swipe their membership cards for a free tote bag. They can also get half off admission to the Sports Legends Museum at Camden Yards Friday.
