Drowsy driving is more than a bad idea—it can be deadly. Around 6,400 lives are lost each year in the U.S., even as 95% of Americans recognize the danger. If you feel tired, pull over and rest. Your safety—and everyone else’s—comes first. 🚗 #StayAwake #DrowsyDriving

Traffic Alert:
The Virginia Beach Police Department (VBPD) is currently on scene for a multi-vehicle crash at the intersection of Dam Neck Road and Princess Anne Road.

VBPD is currently rerouting traffic to Concert Drive as the intersection is closed.

Remember to TEST your smoke alarms EVERY month!

As cold mornings approach, never start your car in the garage — even with the door open.

Carbon monoxide can't be seen or smelled, but it can be deadly. Here's how to stay safe. 🥶⤵️

November is Carbon Monoxide Awareness Month!

Do you know the facts about CO?? 🤔

Carbon Monoxide (CO) is called the silent killer... ☠️it’s an invisible, weightless, odorless toxic gas created by burning fuel. Here’s how to keep your household protected:
🔥 Install CO alarms as and on every level of the home. Test them once a month!
🔥Follow manufacturer instructions on alarm placement.
🔥Have your appliances checked during inspection and every year.
🔥Have fuel-burning heating equipment inspected by a professional each year before cold weather sets in.
🚗Don’t run a fueled engine indoors, even a car or generator in a garage!
🔥Only use gas or charcoal grills outside. They can produce CO too!
