Back to School Safety Tips

Here are some simple reminders for drivers:

• Slow down and be especially alert in the residential neighborhoods and school zones

• Take extra time to look for kids at intersections, on medians and on curbs

• Enter and exit driveways and alleys slowly and carefully

• Watch for children on and near the road in the morning and after school hours

• Reduce any distractions inside your car so you can concentrate on the road and your surroundings. Put down your phone and don’t talk or text while driving
