See how I share the road with bicyclists? I slow down. I use my signals when I turn. I give three feet—plenty of space. Very demure, very mindful. I don’t drive like I own the road. Let’s be aware of how we share the road with our vulnerable road users, friends. 🚴♂️🚗 #VisionZero

See how I don't run red lights on my way to grab a Starbucks PSL?🍁🚦 I keep my eyes on the road, obey the speed limit, and give myself plenty of time to get to where I'm going - very demure, very mindful. I don't act like my choices don't impact others. Let's always stop at red lights and get to our destinations safely, friends. #VisionZero

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Arlyn DeBlauw, a dedicated member of our Citizens Advisory Committee and a fierce advocate for safety, resiliency, active transportation, and Vision Zero. 🕯 Since 2018, Arlyn represented Cape Canaveral with unwavering commitment to the goals and mission of the Space Coast TPO. His passion was evident in his tireless participation in committee meetings, outreach events, workshops, and our annual open house. Arlyn's contributions have made a lasting impact on our community, and he will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of working with him. Our thoughts are with his family, loved ones, and our City Of Cape Canaveral colleagues during this difficult time. Rest in peace, Arlyn.🕊️💙

The Space Coast Transportation Planning Organization will observe National Stop on Red Week 2024, which runs Aug. 4-10, 2024. In 2022, 96 people were killed, and an estimated 728 people were seriously injured in crashes that involved red-light running. Safety is the responsibility of every driver on the road – not just during Stop on Red Week, but every day and every time someone gets behind the wheel. Visit the SCTPO’s Stop on Red Week webpage to access our toolkit with resources to help you remind your teams about the importance of always stopping on red. 🚦 #StopOnRed2024 NATIONAL COALITION FOR SAFER ROADS, FDOT Central Florida
