It’s National School Bus Safety Week and DPS wants to remind you to always be cautious around school buses. If they have a stop sign and red flashing lights—stop. Let’s keep our roads safe for our children. #NationalSchoolBusSafetyWeek #PublicSafety

As we kick off National School Bus Safety Week, parents — remind your kids to always: 🟡 Look left-right-left before crossing the street. 🟡 Stay at least 5 giant steps away from the curb. 🟡 Before boarding, wait for the bus to come to a complete stop.

According to #InjuryFacts data, every day around 20 million children ride buses to and from school. Protecting them, as well as the people walking, driving, and cycling near them, is vital to ensuring everyone stays safe on the road. Technology plays a critical role in making the youngest and most vulnerable road users safe. @FirstStudentInc is a longstanding partner of NSC in advancing our mission of eliminating deaths on roadways. Thank you to their team for inviting NSC to participate in the Schaumburg, IL HALO Marquee Event, a showcase of its connected technology platform to make millions of children safer.

Dashboard footage shows a frightening encounter with a bison at Yellowstone National Park when the animal suddenly charged at his truck. The driver said he had stopped after spotting the bison standing in the road and waited for it to move along. Instead, the animal rammed his vehicle, leaving a dent in the fender and damaging a headlight marker. The driver was unharmed.

Sadly, a pedestrian is killed every 74 minutes in traffic crashes. Remember, at some point in the day EVERYONE is a pedestrian: 🚶‍➡️ Follow the rules of the road 🚶‍➡️ Use crosswalks when available 🚶‍➡️ Walk on sidewalks when available 🚘 Look out for pedestrians and minimize blind spots 🚘 Be careful in hard-to-see conditions 🚘 Yield to pedestrians in crosswalks

Gov. Greg Abbott has directed the state agency that oversees Texas' water planning process to penalize data centers that do not report their water usage. Last year, less than 30% of data centers responded to a state-mandated water usage survey. bit.ly/4hqEiTE

In every state, it's illegal to pass a school bus while the stop-arm is extended and the red lights are flashing. 🚍🚫

Speeding is one of the most critical safety issues for teen drivers. As confidence behind the wheel goes up, so does the temptation to test boundaries, especially when peers are present. tntrafficsafety.org/speeding #SlowDownTN
