High-speed crashes can occur in the blink of an eye, but so many are preventable with small, intelligent decisions. Pay attention, don’t get distracted (say, by texting) and never drive after drinking. As ever – obey speed limits, buckle up and keep plenty of room between yourself and other vehicles. These are small enough measures to save lives — including your own.

We can all take steps to help keep our roads safe for ourselves, our families and our communities.

Crashes involving hazardous materials can pose serious risks to both drivers and nearby communities. Motorists should follow detours, avoid restricted areas, and drive cautiously near emergency scenes to ensure everyone’s safety.
