The Drive With Care Pledge
- I will drive with care. My driving will show that I care about all the different people who share the streets: children, seniors, persons with disabilities, pedestrians, bicyclists and other motorists.
- I will devote my full attention to driving and avoid distractions such as cell phones.
- I will drive within the speed limit on all streets and roads.
- I will obey all traffic signals and stop signs.
- I will stop for pedestrians at crosswalks and intersections.
- I will buckle up every time I drive and insist that all passengers are properly secured.
- I will not drive impaired by alcohol, drugs or drowsiness.
- I will maintain a generous following distance so I have time to avoid hazards in front of me.
- I will not let impatience, anger or road rage impact the way I drive.
- I will choose to drive less by walking, biking and taking transit when I can in order to reduce traffic and improve the environment in my community.
