Stay Safe on the Road: Put Down Your Phone!

The Milton Police Department is reminding all drivers to stay focused on the road and avoid using their cell phones while driving. Distracted driving is a serious safety risk that can have devastating consequences.

• Put your phone on silent mode and store it out of reach while driving.
• Avoid texting, browsing, or using social media while driving.
• Use hands-free devices or voice commands to make calls or send messages.

Remember, your safety and the safety of others on the road is our top priority. Let's work together to prevent distracted driving accidents and make our roads safer for everyone.

Stay safe, and stay focused on the road!
