When you see police vehicles 🚔, emergency vehicles 🚒, tow trucks, etc. on the side of the road... MOVE OVER!!!! Crashing into a police car (happened to be my actual car) on a traffic stop is not cool.... Luckily no one was seriously hurt and I happened to be out of my vehicle…

⏱️Two minutes or less... It may be all the time you & your family have to safely escape a fire in your home. Check your smoke alarms, have an escape plan and practice, practice, practice like your life depends on it. Because it does.
