​Drive Safely

** Drive Safely - Protect Yourself, Your Loved Ones, and Your Neighbors **

• Obey all traffic laws, rules, and safe driving practices (watch for Stop and Yield signs and speed bumps)
• Focus on driving
  • Keep 100% of your attention on driving at all times – no multi-tasking.
  • Don’t use your phone or any other electronic device while driving.
• Slow down.  Speeding gives you less time to react and increases the severity of an accident.
• Drive “defensively”
  • Be aware of what other drivers around you are doing, and expect the unexpected.
  • Watch for drivers backing out of driveways. Be wary on blind corners or slopes.
  • Assume other motorists will do something crazy, and always be prepared to avoid it.
  • Keep a 2-second cushion between you and the car in front of you.
  • Make that 4 seconds if the weather is bad.
