Extra visibility can make a big difference on the road.

If you're heading out after dusk:
🔦 Wear reflective clothing or carry a flashlight.
🚶‍Use sidewalks, or walk facing traffic if there aren't any.

Drivers — slow down and stay alert.

As cold mornings approach, never start your car in the garage — even with the door open.

Carbon monoxide can't be seen or smelled, but it can be deadly. Here's how to stay safe. 🥶⤵️

[Dedham Police Dept @DedhamPD]

A little mist and drizzle won’t get in the way. Please stop by to see us at Dedham Day 2026!

Badges vs Buddies Today!! 🏀

A little extra caution can help prevent a crash. 🦌⚠️

Deer are on the move this time of year and can enter the road unexpectedly. Whether you're driving through wooded areas or suburban neighborhoods, stay focused and be prepared for sudden crossings.

This Crash Responder Safety Week, remember: when you see flashing lights on the side of the road, state laws require you to Slow Down, Move Over.

Giving responders a safe buffer takes just a few seconds, but it gives crews the space they need to return home SAFELY after every shift. 🚨🚘

*Move Over laws vary by state

Just like pedestrians, bicyclists are vulnerable road users. Let’s share our roadways responsibly.

[nhtsagov @NHTSAgov]

Drivers — Keep an eye out for pedestrians. 👁️

Pedestrians — make sure you're SEEN this Halloween. 🧟

[nhtsagov @NHTSAgov]

If you're planning to drink this Halloween, plan to:

🟠 Schedule a rideshare.
🟠 Call a taxi.
🟠 Have a sober friend drive you home.

Buzzed Driving Is Drunk Driving.

What you do and what you don’t do contributes to how safe you are as a pedestrian using our roadways. Let’s DO the things that make our roads safer for everyone. And, NOT DO things that comprise safety. #PedestrianSafetyMonth

Here’s a little school bus refresher:
🟡 Yellow means slow. 
🛑 Red means stop.
Let’s protect kids getting on and off the school bus! Always stop when the stop-arm is out.

#NationalSchoolBusSafetyWeek

[nhtsagov @NHTSAgov]

As we kick off National School Bus Safety Week, parents — remind your kids to always:

🟡 Look left-right-left before crossing the street.
🟡 Stay at least 5 giant steps away from the curb.
🟡 Before boarding, wait for the bus to come to a complete stop.
