When you see flashing lights, be safe, slow down, and move over. It's not just being courteous; it's the law. #MoveOverMonday #AlwaysThere

When you see an emergency vehicle with its lights on, check your mirrors and move over. It's the law and it keeps first responders and road workers safe as they do their jobs. #MoveOverMonday #AlwaysThere

Every extra mile per hour over the speed limit reduces your time to react. A few seconds can be the difference between a close call and a collision. When you’re behind the wheel, give yourself the time and space to make safe decisions. Slow down and arrive safely. #AlwaysThere

Please remember that as melting snow refreezes, roads may be slick and lanes or ramps may close due to black ice. Please slow down, follow posted directions, and give first responders space to work safely. #AlwaysThere
