Behind the wheel is no place to multitask. If you want to BRB, drive now and text later. #StopTexts

#SafeSleep tip: Soft bedding can block a baby's airway during sleep. A firm mattress covered with a tight-fitting crib sheet is all you need to make your baby sleep like a baby. https://t.co/Goj7PyNLki

Don’t let your night go from fun to fatal. Always designate a sober driver before the party starts. #BuzzedDriving is drunk driving.
