Struggling to not text and drive? Activate your phone’s “Do Not Disturb” feature, or put your cell phone in the trunk, glove box, or back seat of your vehicle until you arrive at your destination. #handsfree #distracteddrivingawareness

Buckle up before you crank up your vehicle. Seat belts save thousands of lives every year in the U.S. #buckleupgeorgia #clickitorticket

If you are expecting a text message or need to send one, pull over and park your car in a safe location. Once you are safely off the road and parked, it is safe to text. #parkyourphone #handsfreeGeorgia

Often, discussions regarding distracted driving center around cell phone use and texting, but distracted driving also includes other activities such as eating, talking to other passengers, or adjusting the radio. #eyesup #distracteddrivingawareness

Do not block crosswalks when you stop at intersections. Take extra care while driving around schools, playgrounds, and neighborhoods. #pedestriansafety

Designate your passenger as your “designated texter.” Allow them access to your phone to respond to calls or messages. This prevents the driver from making the deadly mistake of texting and driving. #handsfreeGA

Phones are cool but using them while driving, is not. In fact, it can be fatal. Know when to hit send by parking your phone when driving. #teendriversafety #parkyourphone

Over-confidence about car seats is common among parents and caregivers and parents can sometimes rush the transition from booster to seat belt. A seat belt won’t properly protect your child if the fit isn’t correct. Get more info: #TheRightSeat

It doesn’t matter which term you use – high, stoned, or baked. Drugs impair your ability to drive safely. If you’ve been consuming drugs or alcohol, call a sober friend, ride share, or taxi to get you home safely. If you feel different, you drive different. #ImpairedDriving

Always include a ride with a sober driver when alcohol is part of the plans. Do not make the mistake to drink and drive. Alcohol is a factor in one out of every four traffic deaths in Georgia. #designateddrivers #drunkdrivingkills

Every State and DC has school bus stop arm laws, to protect student pedestrians from other motorists. Unfortunately, injuries and fatalities occur more often outside or near a bus due to other motorists failing to heed the stop-arm warning. #slowdown #obeythestoparm

Parents, talk with your teens on the importance of safe driving. Advise new drivers that less passengers in the vehicle, means less distractions from the road. #teendriversafety
