For Teen Driver Safety Week, it's time to talk about the reality of new drivers.
Parents are the strongest influence on a teen’s driving habits. Have the hard conversations today and set strict boundaries before you hand over the keys.

Red means stop. Every time.🚦
Just like the game Red Light, Green Light:
Red means stop completely.
Green means look both ways before going through the intersection.
Look for people walking, biking and driving before you go.
Let's work together to keep our roads safe.

Don't leave your child’s protection to guesswork. This Child Passenger Safety Week, get your car seat inspected across California by a certified technician. Visit the link in the bio for a program near you!

As Oktoberfest celebrations kick off, it’s easy to underestimate how festival pours may impair. Traditional festbiers carry a significantly higher ABV than your average beer.
Call a rideshare, use public transit, or designate a sober driver.

If you are buzzed, you are driving impaired.
It is never worth the risk.
Lock in your "Go Safely" game plan before the night even begins: call a rideshare, use public transit, or designate a sober driver.

Tailgating season is here, but we're talking football, not following cars too closely on the road. 🏈🎉
Designate a sober driver ✅
Use public transit or call a rideshare ✅
Look out for your teammates on and off the road ✅

The last long weekend of summer shouldn't be the most dangerous.
Map your route, leave early to beat the rush, and prioritize patience.

Back-to-school is here! A few safe choices can make all the difference:
- Make sure every child is buckled in the right seat for their age & size
- Slow down in school zones
- Stay focused and avoid distractions
- Watch for children crossing—always and let them cross.

"Never" can happen to anyone. When it comes to vehicular heatstroke, routines are often the hidden, tragic culprit.
If you see a child alone in a parked car, don't wait. Act immediately and call 911.
#GoSafelyCA @OTS_CA @CaltransHQ
Good times start with a Go Safely safe plan. Before the fun in the sun begins:
Choose a sober driver.
Don't drive after drinking or using cannabis/other drugs that impair.
If you're feeling tired, pull over and rest.
Take your time and focus on the road and driving.
