A resolution designating December 1, 2024, as "Drive Safer Sunday".
SRES 894 is a non-binding Senate resolution designating December 1, 2024, as "Drive Safer Sunday."

The resolution aims to raise public awareness about safe driving habits but does not create new laws or regulations. It directly affects organizations and individuals who choose to participate in the designated awareness campaign.
