Driving in Colorado Springs can be challenging. The rapid population growth has led to congested highways, and frequent road improvements can cause detours, and delays.  When driving in Colorado Springs, be sure to use common sense, defensive driving techniques, and a sense of humor!  The following tips for safe driving come from our great Air Force neighbors at the Peterson AFB Family Support Center.

1.  If the mountains are on your left, you're going north. 2.  If the mountains are on your right, you're going south. 3.  If the mountains are dead ahead, you're going west. 4.  If the mountains are to the east, you're in California. 5.  Wahsatch and Sawatch are not the same street spelled backwards. 6.  Airport Road does not go to the airport. 7.  Fountain Boulevard does not go to Fountain. 8.  Palmer Park Boulevard does not go to Palmer Park. 9.  However, Academy Boulevard does go to the Air Force Academy, eventually.
