Holiday Season Safety Tips

  • Stay alert and be aware of what is going on around you.
  • Park in a well-lighted place. Lock your car doors and store valuables and packages in the trunk or out of sight.
  • Avoid carrying large amounts of cash. Pay by check or with credit cards when possible.
  • Carry your purse close to your body and put your wallet in an inside coat or front pants pocket.
  • If shopping with children, teach them to go to a store clerk or security guard if you get separated.

Please Don't Drink and Drive

Much of the tragedy that results from impaired-driving crashes could be prevented if everyone followed these safety recommendations:

  • If you are planning to drink alcohol with friends, designate a sober driver before going out - and give that person your keys.
  • If you are impaired, do not drive - call a taxi, use mass transit, or call a sober friend or family member to get you home safely.
  • Promptly report impaired drivers you see on the roadways to law enforcement.
  • Wear your seat belt while in a car or use a helmet and protective gear when on a motorcycle as these are your best defenses against an impaired driver.
  • And remember, if you know someone who is about to drive or ride while impaired, take their keys - and help them get to where they are going safely.
