New to driving? Statistics show that you’re at greater risk to be injured in a collision. Don’t become a statistic: follow the speed limit, wear your seatbelt, and ignore your phone when behind the wheel. #ABRoads #DriveSafe #RoadSafety

If you can’t see the driver of a large truck, they can’t see you either! Avoid blind spots and driving too close to large trucks. #drivingtips #NoZone #ABRoads #DriveSafe #RoadSafety

Hungry? While it is legal to eat and drive under Alberta’s distracted driving laws, it’s much safer to pull over for a snack. For more info: #ABRoads #drivingtips #DriveSafe #RoadSafety

Always use marked crosswalks and pedestrian-activated lights or only cross at intersections - they’re built to protect your safety. #ABRoads #pedsafety

Making a turn? Watch out for pedestrians who may be crossing. Not stopping for a pedestrian in a crosswalk can have tragic consequences – it also carries a fine of $810 plus 4 demerit points #ABRoads #DriveSafe #drivingtips #pedsafety

Drivers and motorcyclists aged 14-24 are more likely to be in a collision due to driver inexperience. Don’t drink and drive, put down your phone, and follow the speed limit. #ABRoads #DriveSafe #RoadSafety

Seeing flashing lights? You must slow down and move over to give workers extra space. If it’s not safe to move over, you must slow down to 60 km/h. #ABRoads #DriveSafe

Answering the phone while driving? Only answer hands-free, or risk a $300 fine and 3 demerit points. Otherwise, pulloff the road and put it in PARK. #drivingtips #ABRoads #DriveSafe #RoadSafety

One in five new drivers is involved in a collision during their first two years of driving. Avoid risky behaviours like speeding, distracted driving, following too closely and driving impaired. #ABRoads #DriveSafe #RoadSafety

Be aware and reduce your speed in school/playground zones. Even though school may be out, children might be playing nearby and may not be paying attention to traffic. For more info: #drivingtips #ABRoads #DriveSafe #RoadSafety

Give large trucks and buses the room they need to operate safely. They are larger, wider, and need more time to stop than passenger vehicles. #drivingtips #ABRoads #DriveSafe #RoadSafety

Did you know a sidewalk acts as a stop sign? . A vehicle must stop before entering a street from a road, alley, driveway or parking lot. #ABRoads #DriveSafe #drivingtips #pedsafety

New drivers are more likely to make mistakes than experienced drivers, including speeding, following too closely, running off the road, and making an incorrect left turn. Focus on your driving and avoid the mistakes. #ABRoads #DriveSafe #RoadSafety
