It’s a fact that speeding increases the risk of crashes and injuries. So, follow the speed limit and keep everyone safe!

Alabama’s speed law says you should never drive faster than what’s safe for the current conditions. Always consider the road, the weather, your car, and how you’re feeling. What’s a safe speed one moment might not be the next.

Qué puede hacer

STICK TO THE SPEED LIMIT but adjust for the conditions around you.

DON’T DRIVE TOO SLOWLY, EITHER! Going too slow can be just as dangerous, especially when it blocks traffic.

BE READY TO STOP when approaching intersections, railroad crossings, or when you see road signs like flags or flares. These situations require extra caution.
