Fast Lane Traffic School

To the moms-to-be this Mother’s Day weekend: Your safety is their safety. 🤱✅

The question isn’t IF you should wear a seat belt, but HOW. ⤵️

This National Police Week, we’re honoring the men and women who help keep our roads safe. 🛡️

Law enforcement is at the heart of our mission to save lives. We can't do it without you! 🚓💙

DO NOT answer or be alarmed if you get this violation text, it is a SCAM. Delete it immediately, the Courts and DMV don’t text you for tickets or violations.

"Only Text When Safely Parked" Rule:

Pull Over: If you must read or send a text, pull over to a safe location and put the car in park.
Stoplights Are Not Safe: Texting at a red light or in traffic is still dangerous and illegal in many areas because you are still in control of the vehicle.
5-Second Rule: Looking at a phone for just 5 seconds at 55 mph is like driving the length of a football field with your eyes closed.

How to Stay Focused:

Use "Do Not Disturb" Mode: Activate your phone’s Driving Focus or Do Not Disturb feature to silence notifications.
Out of Reach: Place your phone in the glove box, backseat, or trunk to remove temptation.
Designate a Passenger: Ask a passenger to handle phone calls or messages.
Plan Ahead: Set your GPS and music before you start the car.

Legal Consequences:

Texting while driving is illegal in 49 states.
In California, there is a zero-tolerance policy for holding a phone while driving, even for navigation.
Violations can result in fines, points on your license, and increased insurance rates.
