#DC, if you’re sipping a potion, drinking something boo-zy 👻, or indulging in a witch’s brew, DON’T get behind the wheel. Call a sober friend, rideshare, or taxi—to get you home safely & ensure your #Halloween fun doesn’t end in a nightmare 😱. #BuzzedDriving is drunk driving.

I want to personally thank the staff @LudlowPto, especially all of the gym teachers at DCPS that are teaching the cornerstone curriculum for all DCPS 2nd grade students. Safety is paramount to us @DDOTDC. This is a big step that helps our Vision Zero efforts.

Thanks to @MayorBowser investments @DDOTDC bought 1,000 new bikes for @dcpublicschools on National Walk, Bike & Roll to school day. We also closed of the streets at 8 different schools (one in each ward) for our Safe School Streets pilot. A big step for safety.

The first day of school is tomorrow. Drivers, keep an eye out for more children walking to and from school. Slow down in and around school zones. #BackToSchoolDC #PedestrianSafety #DDOTDC #VisionZeroDC

Help keep #DC’s first responders safe by slowing down and moving over. It’s the law.

A fun morning celebrating #BikeToSchoolDay alongside @MayorBowser, @DMEforDC, @charlesallen, @NHTSA, #TeamDDOTDC, and everyone. As more and more DC residents — are choosing walking, biking, and other options for getting to work or school, having safe routes is our priority.

Every good bicycle ride starts with a helmet, and riding to school is no exception. Before your kids walk out the door, remind them of the importance of wearing a helmet. Learn more: NHTSA.gov/bicyclesafety #BikeToSchoolDay
