By driving distracted, you’re robbing yourself of seconds that you may need to avoid a close call or deadly crash.

Don’t be a fool. Don’t text and drive. #PhoneDown #EyesUp

Distracted driving is real; that’s why we’re observing National Distracted Driving Month this April. How many of the behaviors in this video do you recognize? What’s the worst case of DD you’ve ever seen? No shaming, just sharing.

[LA State Police @LAStatePolice]

Louisiana State Police urges all motorists to obey all roadway signs. It is illegal and potentially dangerous to drive around "road closed" barricades at any time for any reason. These closures are executed to prevent crashes and to prevent motorists from becoming stranded.

[St. Mary Parish SO @StMarySO]

With the possibility of winter weather coming into our area on Sunday and Monday, follow our Facebook or Twitter for information regarding roadway closures in the parish.
You can get the Louisiana 511 App on your phone or smart device at the App Store. The App is free.

Our first responders protect motorists on the road. Too often, however, it is our first responders who need protecting, as they are injured or killed while on a busy road or highway. If you see a first responder on the road, #MoveOver. It's the law.

The rush isn’t worth the risk. Stop. Trains Can’t.

[La. Highway Safety @LaHighwaySafety]

Going for a drive today? Be aware of your surroundings, don’t speed and enjoy the drive! 😎

[La. Highway Safety @LaHighwaySafety]

#MoveOver to protect first responders.

Please drive safe during this holiday season!

[La. Highway Safety @LaHighwaySafety]

Stop for trains as they can not stop for you!

[La. Highway Safety @LaHighwaySafety]

It’s easy for drivers to forget that even in an emergency, trains can take a mile (or more) to stop. They’re also three feet wider than the tracks — on both sides. Stop. Trains can’t.

[Broussard Police @BroussardPolice]

Railroad crossings safety!

[La. Highway Safety @LaHighwaySafety]

All week long we’ll be posting simple steps for safely navigating railroad crossings.
Railroad Safety Simple Step #1: Stop, look both ways, and listen. Remember that trains always have the right of way.

Pray for our brother in blue that was shot.

[NOLA.com @NOLAnews]
