Back To School Driving Tips

Summer is practically over! Sadly it is time to hit the books and with that comes the dreadful school traffic. This may be the first school year actually driving for some of you, others may consider yourselves veterans behind the wheel - STILL -  here are a few tips we ALL should take into consideration:

• Always, always wear your seat belt.
• Remember to turn your headlights on when it’s raining.
• Don’t drive distracted. Texting, talking on the phone, changing the radio station, or chatting with your passengers are all distractions.
• Keep an eye out for pedestrians.
• Make sure you know what those road signs mean.
• Remember to use your turn signal.
• Make sure your tires are in good condition.
• Change your diving to match the weather.
• Don’t drink and drive.
