Ever been blinded by the sun while driving? Taking small precautions can prevent losing sight of the road completely.

Slow down, increase your following distance, and follow the lane markings if the sun is directly in your eyes. Turn on your headlights to increase your visibility to oncoming drivers.

Keep your windshield and dashboard clean to reduce glare!

The forward collision warning system detects a potential collision with a vehicle ahead and alerts the driver. The automatic emergency brake is applied when a forward collision is imminent.

Driver assistance technologies help to keep you and your passengers safe, as well as others on the road. Technology is never an excuse for speeding or driving distracted.

These hot temperatures remind us of all the fun we have at our local elementary schools! Oak Ridge Firefighters supported Linden Elementary with their end of the school year Water Day celebration earlier this year. Firefighters assisted the PTA with setting up the water slide, and we also set up a cellar nozzle as a sprinkler on the basketball court. The kids always love this event, and it is a great way to start their summer.
