The more information you have, the better choices you can make. Bottom line: it's NEVER okay to drive distracted.

It's National Car Care Month! 🚘 After months of salt and grime build up over the winter, your car needs a nice bath. It's also a good time to: ✔️ check your tires. ✔️ check fluids and brakes. ✔️ change your oil.

DRIVERS! You can't drive safely unless the task has your FULL attention: 📵 Never text while driving. 🍔 Don't eat behind the wheel. 🎶 Don't get distracted by your stereo. 💄 Never apply makeup while driving.

Freezing rain can lead to icy roads & black ice. Be careful while driving: - Pay attention to the road and always wear your seatbelt. - Drive slow and leave extra space between vehicles. - Pull over if driving conditions are dangerous. More: ready.gov/winter-ready

Bulky coats can jeopardize a snug fit in a car seat harness. Dress your child in layers and put a coat over the properly-fitted harness for added warmth. #TheRightSeat

“Santa Claus Hit by a Drunk Driver!” – Now there’s a headline no one wants to read. If you’re planning on drinking, plan for a sober ride home. Call a sober friend 🚘, rideshare 🚗, or taxi 🚖 to get home safely. #BuzzedDriving is drunk driving.
