Whether you’re driving, walking, or cycling, the choices you make can impact your safety and the safety of those around you.

Remember, every time you step onto the road, whether as a driver, cyclist, or pedestrian, you are part of a shared community. Let’s all do our part to stay safe, stay focused, and be responsible on the road.

Motorists are reminded to double-check their surroundings before making turns, especially near busy highways. Riders should always wear appropriate safety gear to reduce the risk of severe injury.

Always check for oncoming traffic when pulling out of parking lots or driveways. Even a moment’s distraction can lead to an accident. If you’re involved in a crash, make sure to seek medical attention, even if injuries appear minor.
