It's almost Friday the 13th, but with dropping temps, black ice is the real scare. 👻❄️

As temps drop, wet roads can freeze before they look slick, especially on bridges and overpasses. Don't leave it to luck: slow down and leave extra space. 👇🧊

[nhtsagov @NHTSAgov]

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.

🟡 Turn on your headlights and watch for kids in dark clothing.
🟡 Obey posted speed limits.
🟡 Keep your phone away.
🟡 Stop for crossing guards and pedestrians.

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

In Wisconsin, the police report is not the final word on fault following a car collision. Take the time to talk to experienced trial counsel.
