You can't control what happens around you.

But you can control how prepared you are.

Slow down. Stay alert. Buckle up. Put the phone away. Give yourself time to react.

Defensive driving isn't about expecting the worst. It's about being ready for the unexpected.



Because we care . . .

RCSO deputies continue to respond to calls about drivers passing school buses with their red lights flashing.

A NEW LAW that took effect this year requires drivers to stop for a bus' red lights even if the stop arm is not out.

Ensure our students' safety and stop on red.

Through Sept. 7: To promote safer choices and protect our communities, our office and nearly 300 other agencies across Minnesota are participating in a statewide extra enforcement and education campaign focused on eliminating impaired driving.

What to expect on the road
• Increased patrols: Expect higher law enforcement visibility on state highways and local roads through Labor Day weekend.
• Strict enforcement: Officers will be actively looking for signs of impairment. If you do not drive sober, you will be pulled over.

On Minnesota roads through July 2026 there have been
• 62 alcohol-related traffic fatalities
• 179 alcohol-related serious injuries
• 13,670 DWI arrests

Don't become a statistic. Designate a sober driver, use a rideshare service or plan to stay overnight. MN Toward Zero Deaths Faribault Police Department Northfield Police Department, MN Lonsdale Police Department

Before you hand your teen the keys, ask yourself one question:

Are they truly ready to drive, or are they simply old enough?

A driver's license is more than a rite of passage. It is the responsibility to make safe decisions that can affect their life—and the lives of everyone around them.

The conversations you have before your teen gets behind the wheel may be some of the most important conversations you'll ever have.

That's why we've created Questions to Ask Your Teen Before They Become a Driver. These questions can help identify attitudes, behaviors, and risks before they become tragedies.

Take a few minutes. Ask the questions. The answers could save a life.
