🚦 Every time you approach a red light, you have a choice.

During National Stop on Red Week (Aug. 2–8), H-GAC is proud to join the National Coalition for Safer Roads and our transportation safety partners, including Transportation Advocacy Group - Houston Region, in reminding everyone that red-light running is preventable.

Whether you're driving to work, school, or home, taking a moment to stop at every red light can help protect drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and everyone who shares our roads.
Every safe decision matters. Stop today. Protect tomorrow.
