Everyone is reminded to “Fasten Your Seat Belts, be courteous to drivers and pedestrians and together we can reduce traffic related fatalities, injuries and property damage.”
Note: “School’s Out!” It’s the winter break for children in Lee County. Motorists driving near residential neighborhoods, recreation areas and parks need to exercise caution as children can be at play throughout the day. Your extra vigilance can prevent a tragedy. Remember “SLOW – Children at Play”.
