Paying attention to the road means drivers are less likely to speed and more prepared to drive defensively in case there is a road hazard. Even just holding a phone while driving can be a distraction, and it’s illegal in Tennessee. Focus on the road, for everyone’s safety.

Here's a message worth repeating: Seat belts save lives!

From 2025-2026 in Tennessee, an unbuckled driver was 3 times more likely to die in a crash than a driver wearing their seat belt.

Buckling up every trip, every time is the easiest way to prevent injury or death in the event of a crash.

Riding an ATV/UTV on county roads is legal in Tennessee, but not without the right precautions. Your vehicle must be road-legal with proper registration and title, and you must obey all traffic signs and signals, just like you would in a car or on a motorcycle.

For safety, wear a helmet for both off-road adventures and driving on pavement.

Never operate an ATV while impaired.

It's important for drivers to pay attention in school zones even after active school hours. Slow down and keep a close eye out for vehicles making sudden stops or for kids crossing the street. Remember that children are unpredictable and may forget to look both ways before crossing the street.

School buses are among the safest vehicles on the road. Students are actually more at risk of injury when getting on or off the bus than they are while aboard.

Slow down and leave extra following distance for school buses. Pay attention to the road, especially in residential areas during school commuting times.

Remind your child that the bus stop is not a place to run or play.

Speeding is a critical safety issue for teen drivers. As their confidence behind the wheel increases, so does the temptation to test boundaries, especially when peers are present. Take the lead to address speeding with your teen driver and get involved in the learning-to-drive process.
