From Memorial Day Weekend to Labor Day, there's a noticeable increase in crashes involving teenage drivers, some of which can be deadly. Here are five tips to make teenagers safer while driving:

1. Limit passengers - Having passengers under 21 significantly heightens the risk of accidents for teen drivers.
2. Obey speed limits - Speeding poses a serious safety concern for young drivers.
3. Wear seatbelts - Buckling up is one of the most effective ways to save lives.
4. Eliminate distractions - Just a moment of inattention can lead to tragic outcomes.
5. Never drive impaired - Consuming alcohol or drugs is illegal and unsafe for teens.

Let's enjoy the summer with positive memories we can cherish for years to come.

A quick glance at your phone can have lasting consequences. Help keep San Antonio streets safe by staying focused behind the wheel: no texting, no scrolling, no distractions.

Let’s work together to protect ourselves, our passengers, and our community.

Stay alert. Stay safe.

May is Bike Month in San Antonio, and there’s no better time to swap a few car trips for a bike commute. 🚲

Whether you’re heading to work, running errands, or just enjoying the ride, a little planning can make your trip cooler, easier, and more enjoyable.
-Time it right: Ride early in the morning or later in the evening when it’s more comfortable.
-Choose your route: A slightly longer path with fewer stops can help you stay cool and keep moving.
-Dress smart: Wear light-colored, breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics to stay comfortable.
-Hydrate: Bring water and aim to drink regularly, especially in the Texas heat.

A few small adjustments can make a big difference. Happy riding this Bike Month!
