A resolution designating November 30, 2025, as "Drive Safer Sunday".

YourVoice.Now Summary

The Senate named a day for safe driving — no new rules, no money, nothing changes for you.

The details

Most people would see no change in daily life. The Senate set aside November 30, 2025 — the Sunday after Thanksgiving — as "Drive Safer Sunday". Nothing here changes traffic laws, fines, or how police patrol the roads. No money is spent. The resolution asks schools, trucking companies, clergy, and police to remind people to buckle up and drive carefully. Those are requests, not rules. It notes a federal estimate that seat belts save more than 15,000 lives each year. The Senate agreed to it on December 2, 2025, two days after the day it names.

Congressional Summary

This resolution designates November 30, 2025, as Drive Safer Sunday. It also encourages all people of the United States to use the Sunday after Thanksgiving as an opportunity to educate themselves about highway safety.
