🚦Traffic Tip Tuesday 🚦

Brake Lights Matter!

Did you know that if your vehicle is equipped with three (3) brake lights—one on each side and a center-mounted brake light—all three must work properly when the brakes are applied?

Texas law requires brake lamps to:
✅ Illuminate when the brake pedal is pressed
✅ Remain steady (not flash) while braking
✅ Be visible and in proper working condition

A malfunctioning brake light can reduce your visibility to other drivers and increase the risk of a crash. Take a few moments to check your brake lights regularly or ask someone to help you verify they are working properly.

Stay safe, stay visible, and help keep our roads safe for everyone! 🚗💡
