The Labour Day long weekend is upon us and with that SGI is reminding everyone again to drive safely.

Spokesman Scott McGregor says that means taking your time.

“The risk of crashes increases over long weekends. There’s more people on the roads, people are having a good time and we want to encourage motorists in Saskatchewan to take their time as there will be a lot of traffic out there.” said McGregor.

In addition, SGI urges people to never drive impaired, buckle up, obey speed limits and put the phone away.
