Never leave a child unattended in a car. On average, 37 children in the U.S. die every year in hot cars. A short amount of time in a hot car can be deadly. Always check the back seat. #CheckTheBackseat #wvghsp #nhtsa

When walking across a road, cross at intersections and crosswalks when available. Look for vehicles in both directions, even on one-way streets. See and be seen. Make sure you are visible to vehicles in the roadway. #pedestriansafety #wvghsp #nhtsa
Getting older doesn’t mean it’s time to hang up the keys. Talk to older loved ones about adjusting their driving habits to continue driving safely. Learn more: NHTSA.gov/OlderDrivers
You have a 50/50 chance of surviving a vehicle crash if you don’t wear your seat belt properly. Not wearing a seat belt properly risks your life and dramatically affects the lives of those who love you. Buckle Up. Every Trip. Every Time. #seatbelts #wvghsp #nhtsa

Making a short trip? Don’t forget to make sure your child is properly installed in their car seat, no matter how short the trip. #TheRightSeat #wvghsp #nhtsa
The greatest danger to children isn’t riding on a school bus. The most dangerous thing is approaching or leaving the bus, due to inattentive, negligent drivers. Pay attention: stop when the lights and stop arm are activated. #wvgshp #nhtsa youtu.be/kmYFYYGzHNw?si…
That text or social media post can wait. Distracted driving crashes killed more than 32,000 people in the U.S. from 2012 to 2021. Don't Drive Distracted. Eyes Forward. #wvghsp #nhtsa youtube.com/watch?v=8-kLpM…
Distracted driving can have deadly consequences. Law enforcement will be out April 4-8 to enforce texting bans and crack down on distracted driving. Put the Phone Away or Pay. #JustDrive #DistractedDriving #PhoneAwayorPay youtube.com/watch?v=3zHQZx…
