Flashing yellow lights mean a school bus is preparing to stop. 🟡 Drivers: Slow down, stay alert and be ready to stop. Kids may be nearby, entering or crossing the road. 🚸 Give them the time and space they need to get to and from school SAFELY.

National Rural Road Safety Awareness Week is a critical time to remember that driving in rural areas can require a different mindset than navigating city streets or open interstates. ⤵️

When you're passing a bicyclist on the road, 3 feet is the minimum buffer distance required by law in most states. If you can't immediately give a cyclist that much space, here's your roadmap. ⤵️ *Check your state's specific laws.

SCAM ALERT: Fake texts are circulating claiming you owe money for unpaid tickets. They use "final notice" language and include payment links. These are scams. The CHP does not collect payments by text. Do not click. Do not reply. Report scams to local law enforcement.
