”DON’T WRECK YOUR SUMMER” TIPS:
-
Warmer weather attracts many types of roadway users, including motorcyclist, bicyclists, and pedestrians, so
please be alert.
-
Avoid changing the radio station, opening your sunroof, eating that delicious ice cream, or anything that may
distract you from the road while driving.
-
Rear-end crashes are the most common on work zones, so keep a safe distance between cars.
-
Keep your vehicle hydrated by checking proper fuel levels; just like us they need their fluids.
-
Sunglasses are not just accessories; they help avoid the sun’s glare, which may cause accidents as it impairs
visibility.
-
Always wear your seatbelt, why pay a fine when you can save lives.
