Travel Resources


Helpful Driving Tips
  • Slow Down - It is a known fact that the faster a vehicle travels, the more gas it burns. Driving faster than the posted speed limit increases stress, and increases the chance of having an accident. Leave enough time to reach your destination traveling at the proper speed.

    Be sure to check out SpeedTrap.org

  • Move Over - Drivers are required now by law to "move over" or "slow down" when approaching an authorized emergency vehicle stopped on a Florida highway. On highways with two lanes in the same direction, vehicles must vacate the lane closest to the emergency vehicle. On highways with just one lane in each direction, drivers must slow down to 20 miles under the posted speed limit.

  • Click-it or Ticket - Georgia law is clear that all front seat passengers MUST buckle their seat belts, even if the automobile is equipped with air bags. All children under the age of 16 MUST use a seatbelt while riding anywhere in the vehicle. Also, you may now be ticketed for not complying with any of these restraint laws.

Tips from KISS 104.1 for Summer Vacation
School's almost out for summer, and our kids all want to watch television or play video games for three months straight. But successful parents know that summer vacation is an opportunity, not just a break. Here are some solutions for keeping your kids' minds and bodies active this summer.

Consider Day Camps. During the summer, there are lots of organizations that offer summer day camps. These may be one day, or every day for a week or two, or a few days during the summer. SummerDayCamps.com offers a free listing of day camps in your area.

Keep Reading Alive. Child educators know how hard it can be to start school again in the fall when children have just vegetated all summer. By taking a positive approach to a summer reading program, you can help their minds stay active all summer. We suggest giving your children a book to read on the last day of school. This year, we have purchased a few classics like Twelfth Night and Moby Dick, but all book genres are welcome.
