Back-to-school season is almost here, and with it comes a big shift in traffic around Spokane and Rockford.
August is National Traffic Awareness Month, so our team is sharing a quick reminder: a little extra caution right now goes a long way.
As school routines start back up, watch for:
• Increased pedestrian and bike traffic near schools and neighborhoods
• School buses stopping frequently
• New or changing traffic patterns during morning and afternoon commutes
For parents, it’s also a great time to review safe walking and biking habits with your kids.
We all share the road, and staying alert helps protect the most vulnerable members of our community.
If you have questions about your auto insurance or want to make sure you’re properly covered for the season ahead, we’re always here to help.
Who in your life could use this reminder? Feel free to share it with them.
