Drivers, always obey the rules of the road, avoid distracted driving, and, most importantly, watch for pedestrians and bicyclists. They have a right to the roadways, too.
Fall is approaching, so embrace the remaining summer days by enjoying the outdoors! Here are some pedestrian safety tips to remember while walking/running outside:
🚶♀️ Always use sidewalks and crosswalks when available. 🚶On a blind curve or steep hill, walk along the outer curve to see oncoming traffic and be visible to drivers. 🚶♂️Look for cars in all directions- look left, look right, look left again!
The school year has begun! Drivers, here are some things to remember to keep our roads safe this school season:
🔹Slow down at school zones and bus stops. 🔹Watch for children at crosswalks walking to and from school. 🔹Stop for school buses when lights are flashing.
School is back, and so are the morning and afternoon rushes! Take extra caution near schools and bus stops. Say alert, slow down, and be ready to stop at a moment’s notice. Let’s make this school season safe for everyone.
🚴♂️Bicycling is a great way to get outdoors and stay active! Remember to wear a helmet on every ride to help prevent head injury. Be aware that helmets only work if you wear them correctly! Use this link for the NHTSA guide to fitting your bike helmet: ow.ly/oFIJ50Tehb3
With schools buzzing back to life, your morning commute might look a bit different. Slower speeds, extra stops, and more kids on the move, it’s all part of keeping our roads safe.
As students return to school, let’s keep our neighborhoods safe. Slow down in school zones, bus stops, and watch for kids at every corner. Remember, stopping for a school bus isn’t just the law, it’s protecting our future. #CTRoadSafety#SchoolZoneAwareness#WatchForMeCT... See MoreSee Less
