Welcome to Driver Courtesy Month 2022!
(Waunakee, WI): September is Driver Courtesy Month and in 2022, the National Motorists Association has prepared 15 animations for your use online or on the air that depict driver courtesy principles. This educational effort highlights courteous driver also means safe driving.

Driver Courtesy entails many aspects of driving that are sometimes the law and always unwritten rules of the road.
