?? Happy Halloween! Watch out for trick-or-treaters on the hunt for candy! Drive slow, stay alert, and if you’re celebrating, please don’t drink and drive. Let’s keep it safe and sweet! ???? #HalloweenSafety #DriveSafe

?? Halloween is just around the corner, and while you're planning your costume, don't forget to plan a safe ride home! Remember, buzzed driving is drunk driving.

Let’s work together to bring those numbers down. Buckle up, stay focused, and drive safe! #TeenDriverSafetyWeek #BuckleUp #DriveSmart #TeamKentucky

?? National Move Over Day is a reminder to keep our roads safe for everyone. Under Kentucky’s updated law, drivers approaching a disabled vehicle with emergency flashers, flares, or other warning signals must: ? Move over a lane, if safe to do so, or ? Slow down if unable to change lanes or on a road with fewer than four lanes. Let’s protect our roadside heroes and fellow drivers. Slow down, move over—it’s the law! #MoveOverKY #RoadSafety #SlowDownMoveOver

??♀? REMINDER: It’s Pedestrian Safety Month! Slowing down and being cautious around crosswalks gives you more time to stop when someone’s crossing. Pedestrians can be harder to spot, so take it slow and stay alert. Let’s all work together to make the roads safer for everyone this October. #PedestrianSafetyMonth #SlowDown #ShareTheRoad #WalkSafeKY #TeamKY #TeamKentucky
