Daylight Saving Time is almost upon us again- ![]()
This Sunday March 8, 2026 starting at 2am is Daylight Saving Time this year, and studies show it usually brings with it an increase in drowsy drivers and vehicle collisions! Get ahead of it this weekend by preparing yourself for the disruption in your sleep pattern, so that you’re not driving while tired. If you’re driving on Sunday, be aware of cyclists and pedestrians, especially in the morning when it’s darker than usual.![]()

Adjust your driving style by being extra mindful of the time change and slow down, increasing following distance, and exercise extra caution at intersections. Drivers could be in a bigger rush than usual, and rushing is already a cause for accidents, not to mention when there is more pressure or chance of running late because of the time change.
