Zero Fatalities is reminding Utahns of the traveling risks associated with the time change and providing tips on how to stay safe

Ogden, UTAH – According to the state officials, daylight saving in March introduces two travel risks: (1) poor visibility due to less light in the morning and (2) drowsiness due to a change in sleep cycle.

Zero Fatalities encourages all road users to be aware of these risks and plan accordingly so all travelers arrive safely at their destinations.

Driving during dark, dawn or dusk increases your risk for a fatal crash, especially an auto-pedestrian crash. Starting Monday, the morning commute will be darker during peak travel times.

Road users need to be aware that visibility may be poor and make extra effort to see each other. Here are some safe traveling tips to help:

  • Drivers should always be on the lookout for bicyclists, pedestrians or motorcyclists. Slow down if needed, especially in neighborhoods, near schools and around intersections.
  • Vulnerable roadway users (pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcyclists) should do everything in their power to be seen by drivers. Wear reflective gear and lights, be predictable, use traffic safety devices, obey traffic laws and make eye contact with drivers.
  • All road users should drive sober, eliminate distractions and best focus on the task of driving/walking/biking.
  • Parents should talk to children and teens about the risks and safety tips for daylight saving.
