Exceeding the 65 MPH speed limit and having a 5 yrs old in the back seat with no car seat. California law requires children under 9 yrs old or 4'9" to be secured in a car seat or a booster seat. Seatbelts save lives and must be used properly. Slow down and buckle up!

April is #NationalDistractedDrivingAwarenessMonth—and it only takes a second of distraction to change everything. For your safety and the safety of others, avoid holding your phone for calls, texting, or social media while driving. Both hands on the wheel with distractions away.

Feeling tired behind the wheel isn’t just uncomfortable-it’s dangerous. Driving while drowsy can slow reaction times, impact decision-making, and increase the risk of serious crashes. If you feel drowsy while driving, pull over at a safe location and rest.
