Road safety is a top priority for Halton Regional Council. Through the Halton Drive SAFE program and its Safe Roads…Your Call campaign, you'll see road signs reminding you to call 911 if you see a suspected impaired driver on the roads. Your call could save someone's life. Visitwww.halton.ca/impaired for tools on how to plan for a safe ride home, ways to talk to teens about impaired driving and more. On behalf of Regional Council, I wish you and your family have a Merry Christmas and a safe and healthy 2014.
