AllSafe Driver's Ed

Remember, while mowing your grass, NEVER push the grass clippings onto the road! This is like ice to a motorcyclist.
It is against the law to create a hazard for a driver, so we do not push grass clippings, leaves, or snow out onto the roadway.

These aren't workers. These are people.
Never forget that you share your risk of driving with everyone around you. Pay attention.

UPDATE - Two Michigan Department of Transportation workers have died after being hit by an SUV on northbound US-127 on Tuesday, according to the Michigan State Employees Association. Latest details at link in comments ⬇️

Memorial Day marks the start of the 100 deadliest days of summer on the roads. People often mistake a nice day for no risk.
You still have ALL the risks of driving, you just don't have the ADDED risk of snow, ice, or rain.
Please pay attention, even when you think nothing can ruin that beautiful day!

With the nice weather you will be seeing many more motorcycles, but ONLY IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THEM!
Always look twice before committing to any turn.

Be careful out there! It's pot hole season!!
If you hit a pot hole or a curb too hard, you can break a belt and puncture the inner lining of your tire creating a bulge in the tire. You would need to replace that tire immediately.

Winter is lingering like a Midwesterner at the door.
Be careful on cold, windy days! The snow melts and then the wind freezes the water leaving nearly invisible icy patches!

These numbers aren't percentages. Check the inside of your driver side door to find out what PSI is needed in your tires.

Happy New Year!!

Please give yourself extra following distance in adverse conditions. Remember, following distance is often a factor that determines whether you are part of a crash or not.
