Drive Safe After Dark
Temple Station deputies recently responded to a traffic collision that happened at dusk. As the sun sets earlier this time of year, we want to remind everyone to stay alert and adjust your driving habits for nighttime conditions.
Keep your windshield and windows clean to improve visibility.
Make sure all your lights—headlights, brake lights, and signals—are working properly.
Slow down, increase your following distance, and avoid looking directly into oncoming headlights.
Stay alert for pedestrians, cyclists, and animals—they’re harder to see at night.
Be prepared for the unexpected by keeping an emergency kit in your vehicle.
A few small steps can make a big difference in preventing nighttime collisions. Stay safe, stay alert, and drive smart after dark.
