Safe Roads, Safe Summer

In 2025, the Grand Junction Police Department, the Grand Junction Fire Department, the City of Grand Junction, Colorado State Patrol, School District 51, Colorado Mesa University, the Colorado Department of Transportation, and the Bureau of Land Management joined forces to educate the public about summer safety.

May- Summer Safety

Drive Smart, Stay Safe

Buckle up and stay off your phone. Follow the rules every time you get behind the wheel.

June- Cycle Safety

Share the Road

Watch for bikes, buses, and pedestrians. And cyclists, watch for cars. Kindness counts.

July- Distracted and Impaired Driving Safety

Avoid Reckless Driving

Speeding, distractions, and impaired driving are not just dangerous— they're illegal.

August- Pedestrian Safety

Respect Crosswalks

Keep your head on a swivel. If someone's cross, stop. That's the law—and it could save a life.

Whether you're walking, biking, or driving, safety starts with you. At 7, 17, or 27—every decision matters. Behind the wheel, you make thousands of split-second choices. Make the ones that save lives.
