Watch Out on the Roads as School Starts

Be mindful of pedestrians, buses, emergency vehicles, and PEC trucks.

Safety vehicles on the roads

School is back in session, and the roads are filling up in the early morning and late afternoon. As you continue making your daily commutes this fall, remember to share the road safely.

Move over and slow down when you see an emergency vehicle pulled over with flashing lights — it’s the law! This includes PEC bucket trucks, as well as police, fire, and emergency vehicles. Drivers must move out of the lane closest to the utility vehicle when possible, or slow down to 20 miles per hour below the posted speed limit.

Let’s keep everyone — including ourselves — safe on the roads this school year!
