With the recent fog, we’ve noticed many drivers traveling without their headlights on. Turning your lights on isn’t just about helping you see—it helps others see you.

Please take a moment to check that your headlights are on before heading out, especially during foggy mornings. A simple turn of the switch can make a big difference.

Let’s help each other get home safely.
