Do you still remember how it was when you were a young and novice driver? Both hands on the wheel, both eyes on the road, mind completely on the task of driving - it took all your senses to drive! This year, join the Office of Highway Safety in getting BACK TO BASICS. It means focusing on driving the car instead of multi-tasking. Remember, experience does not necessarily make a better driver. Drive safely. Arrive Alive.

Distracted Driving. Many of us are guilty of it. Did you know that drivers who use hand-held devices are 4 times more likely to get into crashes serious enough to injure themselves? But there is more to Distracted Driving than just talking on a cell phone and texting.

Did you know that you are three times more likely to be killed in a car crash at night? Statistics show that the night time hours are the most dangerous time to be on the road. When the odds are against you it makes sense to play it safe. Buckle up and be protected. Here's what you need to know about fatalities in Delaware and what you can do to protect yourself.

For some, using a cell phone, smart phone, or other electronic device is part of daily life. We depend on this technology for a variety of reasons that make it difficult to put the phone down. But did you know that in 2012, 13,000 citations were issued statewide to people using a hand-held cell phone? Read more for the risks involved with being distracted while you are behind the wheel.

It’s that time of year again. This year marks the 13th year that the Office of Highway Safety has teamed up with Delaware Law Enforcement Agencies to educate the public and enforce the seat belt law during the annual Click It or Ticket Campaign. Read on what you must do to stay safe by using your seat belt.

Don’t Join The Walking Dead. That is the new message OHS along with their traffic safety partners are conveying to pedestrians across Delaware. What you need to know Walking safely is really just about using your brain. When people walk around mindlessly, they get hurt or killed.  Out of all the deaths that occur on […]

Every October, OHS partners with the Network of Employers for Traffic Safety (NETS) to promote Drive Safely to Work Week (DSWW). This year’s campaign is being observed October 7-11.  The theme is “Gear Up for Safe Driving” which focuses on aspects of driver safety that occur before you even start the engine. Get the Facts […]

The night before Thanksgiving is often one for celebrating. Whether you are hosting a gathering of family and friends before the big meal or after, it is the responsibility of the host to make sure that each car leaving the party has a designated, sober driver. Read on for helpful suggestions for your celebration.

Did you know that motorists who use hand-held devices while driving are 4 times more likely to get into crashes serious enough to injure themselves? It has become a common occurrence to see others talking on their hand-held cell phone or checking their smartphone while driving. You may even do it yourself. But there is more to Distracted Driving than just talking on a cell phone and texting.

Did you know that Delaware crash data for this year suggests that speed and improper seat belt use are major contributors in the number of fatalities this year? And the numbers are up. It’s mid-October, and the number of traffic deaths this year has already exceeded the total number of people killed last year on Delaware roadways.

You would never get into a roller coaster without putting on a seat belt, so why would you get into a car without wearing one? OHS wants to remind everyone that speed thrills but it also kills.

Would you ever ride a roller coaster without the harness? Would you let your friends or family? Of course not! Did you know that when you ride in a motor vehicle without a seat belt you are taking a similar risk? One you can’t afford. Once again, Delaware is joining law enforcement agencies nationwide to enforce seat belt laws during the annual Click It or Ticket campaign.
