Distracted driving endangers not only the drivers, but their passengers, pedestrians, and others using the road. Cellphone use, specifically, texting, talking, and social media, is the most common form of distracted driving in the United States. When you're behind the wheel, you must focus on one task: safe driving. Anytime you shift your attention from driving, you're distracted. Commit yourself to saving lives by saying NO to distractions while driving and speak up when you see others driving distracted! #JustDrive #SDDOT #SD511

Interesting concept Every year, hundreds get caught in police speed controls for driving too fast — with many caught by automatic speed cameras. But did you know there’s a way to avoid the hefty fines accompanying speeding? Here’s how to cleverly avoid speeding fines. 1. Look closely at the road signs showing you the speed limit. The number indicated is the maximum speed you can travel on foot, by bike, or in a car. 2. Try to locate your car’s speedometer. You usually find it on the dashboard in front of the driver’s seat. An arrow pointing to the number reflects the car’s speed. On newer cars, the speed is sometimes displayed digitally, with numbers. 3. This last point is also the hardest. Adjust your speed according to the number shown on the road sign. The police can not fine you if you do not drive over this number. Strangely, there seem to be surprisingly too few who are aware of this simple yet genius trick. And best of all, if you stick to it, you’ll never have to pay a speeding fine again. Even better — the road will become much safer for everyone!
