Parents — remember teaching them how to tie their shoes? 👟

Teaching them to drive takes the same thing: patience, practice, and a lot of reminders. ⤵️

Heavy rain in parts of California & the Southwest? Postpone unnecessary trips. If you must drive — slow down, stay alert behind the wheel & never drive through floodwater or around barricades. You can’t tell how deep the water is or if the road is damaged. https://t.co/GAY3V23A39

Several large wildfires continue to burn across CA. If your area's impacted by wildfires, limit your time outdoors to reduce exposure to smoke. If you must go outside, use a mask to protect yourself from smoke inhalation & check your area's air quality at https://t.co/w4MQtkOa9W.

Today is Test it Tuesday

Tonight, try sleeping with your bedroom door closed.
A closed door can help slow down the spread of smoke, heat, and flames. Allowing more time for your family more time to escape.

[U.S. Fire (USFA) @usfire]

Being prepared is core to the U.S. Fire administration’s mission!

Take time to review fire-safety procedures at your work, home, and school.

A prepared community is a safer community.

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.

Preparing to head out for Halloween fun? Make sure your smoke alarms are ready. Press the test button to confirm they’re working—because a working alarm can save lives.

The posted speed limit tells you the maximum speed allowed under ideal conditions — clear skies, dry pavement and daylight. ☀️🚗

When conditions drop below ideal, your speed should drop, too. ⤵️

[nhtsagov @NHTSAgov]

Leaves are falling and temperatures are dropping — is your grip slipping, too? 🍁

Wet leaves, morning frost and slick roads can make fall driving challenging. Wore tire tread can reduce traction and increase stopping distances on wet roads.

Check these 3 things before hitting the road. ⤵️🛞
