What if your driving habits changed someone’s life forever?
Every motorist, pedestrian, bicyclist, emergency responder and highway technician is someone’s daughter, son, mother, father, sister, brother or friend.
They deserve to go home to their loved ones, and
they’re counting on you.
Every choice you make behind the wheel matters.
One moment of inattention, impatience or
intoxication could result in a life lost, a family
devastated and a community grieving.
Even careful drivers can form bad habits over the
years. WHAT IF you choose to break yours today?
Slow Down and Move Over
When you see highway technicians, emergency
services, or a fellow motorist on the roadway or
shoulder, slow down. If safe to do so, move over a
lane and give them some room.
Put Down the Phone
Even a quick glance to read a message, send a text
or dial a number can divert your attention long
enough to miss a stop sign, overlook a pedestrian
or swerve toward another vehicle. Nothing on your
phone is more important than someone’s life.
Share the Road
It costs nothing to respect your fellow roadway
users. Use your turn signals, reduce your speed,
check your blind spots and drive with others in
mind.
Stay Focused
You may be a great multitasker at home and work,
but you only have one job in your vehicle – to
drive safely. Keep your eyes on the road and your
hands on the wheel.
Drive Sober
Driving sober is a matter of life and death. When
you choose to get behind the wheel under the
influence of any substance, you’re gambling with
your life and the lives of everyone around you.
