Do you want to know how much distracted driving could cost you?
S/Sgt Patrick Barbar with @SaskatoonPolice explains the fines you’ll face if you are caught breaking the law. @SPSTraffic#HeadsUpPhonesDown
Planning a safe ride home isn't hard.
There are many options like using a designated driver, rideshare, taxi or staying the night. If your plans fail, don’t be afraid to call your parents or a friend – anything but driving while you’re impaired. #MissionTBK @honeybunsbaking

#TrafficTipTuesday💡
Whether it's an afternoon jaunt or a twilight trip home, your headlights should always be on, especially if you're driving on gravel.
#DidYouKnow
🚛Commercial drivers are limited to a maximum of 13 hours of driving in a shift and must have at least 8 consecutive hours off-duty before getting back behind the wheel.
Whether you drive a semi or not, always ensure you are well rested before you hit the road.
#TrafficTipTuesday
🚲 Cyclists - ride with the traffic, not against it.
🚘 Motorists – respect cyclist’s space (that means no tailgating or squeezing past) and only pass when safe to do so.
