Zero Tolerance Crackdown

• Plan ahead for a sober ride.
• Arrange for a designated driver, use a rideshare service or program the numbers for cab companies into your phone.
• You can also plan to use public transportation, but check schedules ahead of time in case service is altered during the holiday.

• Don’t try to make up time by speeding. Because of extra traffic on the road, leave for your destination earlier than needed to allow for increased travel time.
• Make sure everyone in your vehicle is wearing their seat belt and all children under 8 are riding in an approved child passenger safety seat or booster seat.
• Limit driver distractions by staying off phones. Program GPS before you get on the road or have a passenger be in charge of navigation.
• Take breaks to avoid drowsy driving: Plan rest stops as needed and alternate drivers if possible!

Drivers can benefit from understanding state laws and penalties pertaining to impaired driving, especially now that the holidays are near.

The same safe driving practices that are taught in A-1’s Defensive Driving Class can be applied to be a safe driver in a car and on a motorcycle. There is a lot of very useful and informative information in the class and it will apply whether you have been driving for years or you are a brand new driver.
