πŸ–οΈ Before You Hit the Beach... Check Their Car Seats! πŸ–οΈ

Before you pack the sunscreen and beach toys, take a few minutes to make sure your child's car seat is ready for the trip.

βœ… Make sure your child's car seat or booster still fits properly.
βœ… Check that harness straps are snug and positioned correctly.
βœ… Ensure the car seat is installed securely.
βœ… Kids grow quicklyβ€”verify they haven't outgrown their current seat.
βœ… Have your car seat checked by a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician to make sure it's being used correctly.

A properly fitted and installed car seat can make all the difference on the road. Safe travels and enjoy your beach adventure! πŸŒŠβ˜€οΈπŸš—

🚲 A Bike That Fits = A Safer Ride! 🚲

Kids grow quickly, but that doesn't mean they should ride a bike that's too big for them. A properly sized bicycle helps children maintain control, stop safely, and build confidence while riding.

Before heading out, make sure:
βœ… Both feet can comfortably reach the ground when stopped
βœ… They can easily reach the handlebars and brakes
βœ… The bike is the right size for their height

And don't forget the most important piece of safety equipmentβ€”a properly fitted helmet every ride, every time! πŸͺ–

A bike that fits and a helmet that fits are the perfect combination for a safe and fun summer of riding!

β˜€οΈ STOP. LOOK. LOCK. β˜€οΈ

As summer temperatures rise, never leave a child alone in a vehicleβ€”not even for a minute. A car can heat up dangerously fast, putting children at risk of serious injury or death.

πŸ›‘ STOP and check your back seat.
πŸ‘€ LOOK before you walk away.
πŸ”’ LOCK your vehicle to prevent children from getting inside.

Let's make it a great summer by keeping every child safe.

βœ… Kids grow fastβ€”check for growth spurts over the summer and make sure their restraint still fits properly.
βœ… Be a good role model by buckling up every trip, every time.

🚌 School is almost out for summer! Before the final bell rings, take a moment to thank your child's school bus driver.

Every day, they help ensure our children get to and from school safely. Through rain, snow, traffic, and busy mornings, they play an important role in keeping our kids safe on the road.

A simple "thank you" can go a long way. Let's show our appreciation for the dedicated bus drivers who help protect our most precious cargo every school day!

πŸ’› Thank you, bus drivers, for a safe and successful school year!

πŸŽ“ Happy Graduation! πŸŽ‰

As you celebrate this exciting milestone, remember one lesson that will always matter β€” buckle up every ride, every time. Whether you're heading to college, work, or your next adventure, your seat belt is one of the simplest ways to stay safe on the road.

Congratulations to the Class of 2026! Dream big, drive safe, and make smart choices behind the wheel. πŸš—πŸ’™

β€œYou look good in that booster seat!” 😎

Don’t rush kids out of their booster too soon. Booster seats help seatbelts fit properly and protect growing children in a crash. Before moving to just a seatbelt, make sure your child passes all 5 steps:

βœ… Sits all the way back against the seat
βœ… Knees bend naturally at the edge of the seat
βœ… Lap belt fits low on the hips/thighs
βœ… Shoulder belt crosses the chest and shoulder
βœ… Can stay seated properly the entire ride

The right fit matters on every ride, every time. Buckle up safely!

This Memorial Day, we honor and remember the brave men and women who gave their lives protecting our country and our freedoms.

One way we can honor their sacrifice is by protecting what matters most β€” our families. As you travel this holiday weekend, buckle every passenger on every ride, avoid distractions, slow down, and drive safely.

Safe travel saves lives. Wishing everyone a meaningful and safe Memorial Day weekend. β€οΈπŸ€πŸ’™
