⚠️ Young people continue to face some of the highest risks on the road, whether they're behind the wheel, riding with friends, cycling or walking in their communities.

During Canada Youth Road Safety Week, the OPP is highlighting the importance of safe choices, responsible driving habits and road safety awareness. Every decision made on the road has the potential to prevent a collision, injury or tragedy. By working together to promote safe behaviours, we can help protect young people and build safer roads for everyone.
