Thanks to our friends at the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning for sharing this excellent advice.

Stay safe, Grand Ledge!

As harvest season continues across Michigan, remember that even if you have to slow down to 20 mph and follow a tractor for one mile, it takes only three minutes of your time – about the same amount as waiting for one stoplight. Drive safely, Michigan! www.michigan.gov/OHSP
