🚗💡 Shoulder checks matter!

Do a quick glance whenever you change direction or road position.
Check right before right turns, and always mirror + shoulder check before opening your door. Use them when pulling out, pulling over, changing lanes, and turning.

Hi, we don’t have plans to digitize driver’s licences. However, we’ll be looking at how it performs in other jurisdictions in the future. ^YC

When you visit an ICBC driver licencing office for your knowledge test you will be asked to create a keyword. Your keyword helps confirm your identity and protect your personal information.

Keep your ICBC keyword secure and never share it with anyone. 🔐

With snow flurries across Metro Vancouver, roads are extra slick. Whether you’re heading out now or later today, please slow down and give yourself extra time.

🌨️Allow yourself at least twice the normal braking distance on wet or slippery roads
🌨️Switch on your headlights if visibility gets low

We're deeply sadden to learn of the devastating tragedy in Tumbler Ridge. Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, first responders, and the entire community during this extremely difficult time.

We will continue to keep the Tumbler Ridge community and all those affected in our thoughts.

Ever notice cars in poor weather or near sunset without tail lights? 🚨 Auto settings and daytime running lights don’t always turn them on. If visibility drops below 150 m, switch on your headlights to see and be seen. Drive safe! #DriveSafeBC
