3 Back to School Driving Tips
- Slow down in school zones. The driving speed in a school zone is low for a reason, it keeps children safe and allows drivers to stop more quickly. When you see those flashing red lights be sure to slow down and keep your foot on the brake so you can react quickly.
- Look out for school buses. You’ll notice plenty of school buses on the road this time of year and to help keep everyone safe, obey their signs and keep your eyes open for kids when you see them stop.
- Keep your eyes open for kids. Even if you aren’t driving in a school zone, the mornings and afternoons will have many children headed to school so always be on the lookout for kids walking or riding their bikes.
