Keep you and your fellow drivers SAFE! Slow down, move over and give them the space they need.

*Move Over laws vary. Check your state's specific laws.

[GTSC @NYSGTSC]

Teenagers have the lowest seat belt usage rates of any age group. In fact, more than half of teen drivers in fatal crashes are unbuckled.

Talk to your teen about how important it is to wear your seat belt. And teens, make sure your friends buckle up, every trip, every time.

One talk could save their life.

⚫ Call a taxi
⚫ Have a sober friend drive you home

Spring break reminder: Wait for WALK signals and put your phone down while crossing.

Drivers — stay alert for pedestrians!

CSO Weirman and Investigator Sparks spent the morning with the Village of Manlius Recreation's littlest campers for a tour of the PD!

They had lots of hands-on fun, exploring the police cars, jail cell, trying on police equipment and getting all their questions answered!

🚗🔥 Stay Cool Behind the Wheel 🔥🚗
Road rage incidents have notably increased across New York. Losing your temper behind the wheel can lead to serious consequences — including arrest.

Stay calm. Stay courteous. Drive safe.

⚠️ Stay Safe! ⚠️
If you can’t see the ground, turn around!
🌊Snow melts, the saturated ground and strong winds are causing flooding, 🌳 downed trees, and powerlines.
🚧 Avoid flooded roads – even a few inches of water can sweep your car away.
Most flood deaths occur in vehicles
