🍂 Less daylight means it’s time for more attention.

Fall evenings can make pedestrians and cyclists harder to spot.

Patty’s reminder: slow down when visibility is limited, keep your windshield and headlights clean, and give your full attention to crosswalks, intersections, and neighborhood streets. 👀🚗

📱 Put distractions away before you pull out.

Share this with a new driver… and practice an evening drive together to build confidence after dark.

Football Parties & Sober Driving

🏈 Your team needs a game plan. So does your ride home.
Football gatherings are for cheering, snacks, and friendly rivalries, not taking chances behind the wheel.

Patty’s tip: Plan your ride BEFORE the first drink. Choose a designated driver who won’t drink, arrange a rideshare, or plan to stay overnight. If you’ve been drinking, don’t drive - even for a short trip.

🚗 Make your ride-home plan now, and share this with your game-day crew!

The best win? Everyone getting home safely. 🙌
