After 13 years of dedicated service safely helping students cross the street outside of Lynbrook North Middle School, School Crossing Guard Rivera is officially calling it a career.

For more than a decade, Karen Rivera was much more than a crossing guard. She was a friendly face each morning and afternoon, a reassuring presence for parents, and a trusted member of our community who helped ensure countless students made it safely to and from school each day.

Her commitment, professionalism, and care for the children of Lynbrook have made a lasting impact on generations of students and families. The corner won't be quite the same without her.

On behalf of the entire community, thank you for your years of dedicated service and for helping keep our children safe. We wish you a happy, healthy, and well-deserved retirement filled with new adventures, relaxation, and time with family and friends.

Congratulations,School Crossings Guard Rivera, and thank you for everything! 👏

Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. Memorial Day is a time to remember, with gratitude and pride, those who gave their lives defending the freedoms we enjoy every day.

As Americans, we must never forget the courage, selflessness, and dedication of those who left their families, homes, and futures behind in service to this great country. Their sacrifice will forever stand as a testament to the true cost of freedom.

The members of the Lynbrook Police Department proudly remember and honor all who served and died for our country. We salute our fallen heroes and keep their memory alive today and always.

A ticket is inconvenient. A crash is life changing.

Every trip. Every seat. Every time.
Wearing your seat belt is the simplest thing you can do to protect yourself and the people riding with you.

Don’t risk your life over a preventable choice.
Buckle up before you drive.

A seat belt is your first line of defense in a crash and can mean the difference between walking away or not making it home at all. Protect yourself, your family, and everyone riding with you.

Buckle up every trip, every time.
Seat belt laws will be actively enforced.

Protect what matters most. A seat belt saves you from more than a ticket.

Driving isn’t a game, especially on 4/20.

Don’t drive high, it could cost lives. Your reaction time slows, your focus drops, and the risk isn’t just to you, but everyone on the road.

If You Feel Different, You Drive Different

If you don’t see it coming, you can’t avoid it. Don’t drive distracted.

On land or water, distractions can be deadly. Keep your eyes on the road.

Taking your eyes off the road—even for a moment—can mean missing what’s right in front of you. Stay focused behind the wheel.

April 9–13
You will see an increased police presence actively enforcing texting and distracted-driving laws.

Put the phone away or pay.
