There have been 5 devastating hot car deaths before summer has even officially begun. 🚘💔

Parents — it takes less than a minute to build a life-saving routine:
🧸 Keep a stuffed animal in the front seat as a visual reminder
🎒 Leave an important item in the back seat so you have to check
🔑 Keep your car locked at home so kids can’t crawl inside and get trapped

In 2024, the fatality rate for motorcyclists was 27 times higher than for passenger vehicle occupants.

With summer finally here, we’re seeing more motorcycles out enjoying the warm weather. Whether you’re behind the wheel of a car or on a bike, we all play a role in keeping each other safe.

Drivers: Give motorcycles extra space and stay alert. Motorcyclists may need to brake or maneuver quickly to avoid hazards.

Motorcyclists: Wear a helmet, follow traffic laws and never ride distracted.

As Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month comes to a close, we want to remind everyone to look twice and help save a life.
