October is Pedestrian Safety Month
Drivers and pedestrians share responsibility for keeping our streets safe.

Slow down, especially near crosswalks and schools
Stay alert—avoid distractions
Yield to pedestrians in marked crosswalks
Pedestrians: use crosswalks whenever possible and make eye contact before crossing

A few extra seconds can save a life. Let’s look out for one another.

Con fondos de la Oficina de Seguridad Vial de California (OTS), el Departamento de Policía de la ciudad de Lincoln, en asociación con el Departamento de Policía de la ciudad de Rocklin, y el Departamento de Policía de la ciudad de Auburn crearon un breve vídeo enfocado en la seguridad durante paradas de tráfico.

Las paradas de tráfico son una de las interacciones más comunes entre las fuerzas del orden y el público. Saber qué esperar puede ayudar a que esas interacciones sean más seguras y fluidas para todos los involucrados.

Tómese unos minutos para ver, compartir y mantenerse informado.
