The 100 Deadliest Days of Summer Are Here
1. 🚗 Put the phone away. Texting or scrolling for even a few seconds can have life-changing consequences.
2. 🪑 Wear your seat belt—every trip, every seat. Make sure every passenger is buckled up before the vehicle moves.
3. ⚡ Slow down. Speeding dramatically reduces your reaction time and increases the severity of crashes.
4. 🚫 Never drive impaired. Alcohol, drugs, and even some medications can affect your ability to drive safely.
5. 😴 Don’t drive drowsy. If you’re exhausted, pull over or switch drivers.
6. 👀 Watch for motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians. Summer means more people are outside sharing the road.
7. 🚧 Use extra caution in construction zones. Expect lane shifts, reduced speeds, and workers near traffic.
8. 🚙 Limit distractions inside the car. Food, loud conversations, pets, and GPS adjustments can all take your attention off the road.
9. 👥 Parents: Talk to your teen drivers. Set expectations for speed, passengers, phone use, and curfews before handing over the keys.
10. ❤️ Remember: Getting there safely matters more than getting there quickly.
