Public Safety
Your safety is our highest priority
The Detroit Police Department recommends that drivers reduce their speed to no more than 15 MPH to ensure safety on the roads.
In Michigan, drivers should activate their turn signals to indicate their intention to pull over, safely move to the right side of the road, and come to a complete stop to yield to first responders, ensuring they have a clear path to respond to emergencies.
