Driving is a privilege not a right, don’t abuse it by performing unsafe tasks while driving. Distracted driving is a major problem and it starts with you putting down the phone while driving and focusing on your responsibilities as a driver!

Do you know how to make a PROPER left/right turn in an intersection? Did you know you had to stay in the same corresponding lane? Did you know long vehicles (transport trucks/busses) are exempt from this? Read more here to find out and save yourself a ticket or a crash!

Serious question: what is it going to take to make people value their lives, and the lives of those around them, more? https://t.co/cNG7rozGbb

It’s winter, ensure that your lights on your vehicle are turned on all the way, let other road users know where you are going by using your signals, slow down, and minimize distractions by keeping phones and other devices in place where they will not tempt you to check or text!

Drivig is a privilege not a right, don’t abuse it by performing unsafe tasks while driving!

That text could be your last text, you wouldn’t want to risk that would you?If you don’t care about your safety and the safety of others at least think about that.

Hint: if you throw your phone down after you see me; its too late; maybe if you werent distracted you would have seen me first. #PhoneInOneHandTicketInTheOther #NeedACruiserWash

Don’t risk up to a $1000 fine and 3 demerit points! If you are a A-G licensed driver! Novice drivers are exempt from demerit points but risk up to 90 day license suspension or licence cancellation upon 3rd offence! Don’t Distracted Drive! Save yourself the fines!

[students vs. distracted driving @bukleupevrytime]

What started out as just a project has turned into a community safety initiative, and has taught us so much about distracted driving and how dangerous it really is! You can’t control the behaviours of other drivers in the road but you can change yours!

[students vs. distracted driving @bukleupevrytime]

When you check your phone while driving is it ok just for a second? Will you still text and drive after being in an accident caused by distracted driving? Don’t text and drive! Arrive alive!

[Richard Hegedus @HegedusTPS]

@bukleupevrytime 2 seconds to check text message at 60 km/h = potential collision with car stopping in front of you. Ur text msg can wait.
