Driving Change with Statistics

deploying speed boards, and organizing vari- ous neighborhood and community activities to combat speeding, the campaign strives to make our streets safer for everyone. These distinctive Slow Down Yard Signs are readily available year-round at select law enforcement agencies, American Family Insurance agents, and AAA Wisconsin locations. This accessibility ensures that the message of safe driving per- meates throughout the community consistently.

Behind the imperative to slow down lies a foundation of compelling statistics that un- derscore the significance of this campaign. Studies and data affirm that reducing speeds not only decreases the likelihood of acci- dents but also mitigates the severity of potential collisions, ultimately saving lives and preserving the well-being of community members.

As the Slow Down Yard Sign Campaign continues to gain momentum, it serves as a testament to the collec- tive commitment towards fostering safe communities through awareness, collabo- ration, and responsible driv- ing practices. Together, we can pave the way for a future where every journey is a safe one.
