As we draw closer to the first day of school, the Texas Department of Public Safety has an article about safe driving and school safety! This includes tips on how to safely drop off and pick up your child from school, drive cautiously through school zones and talk to your family and loved ones about staying safe this school year and beyond.
“As the new school year begins, we’re asking every driver to slow down, stay alert and be patient— especially in school zones and car lines for pickup,” said Texas Highway Patrol Chief Bryan Rippee. “Children can be unpredictable and it’s our responsibility to keep them safe. A moment of impatience or distraction behind the wheel can have life-changing consequences. Let’s all do our part to make sure students arrive safely every day.”
