Picture of sacramento golden bridge, with 4th of july fireworks in the background.

We wish everyone a wonderful Independence Day holiday. Enjoy fireworks, burgers and dogs, family and friends or whatever you decide to do to ring in our nation’s 247th birthday. But…whatever you do…be safe. Driving on 4th of July can be perilous.

And, remember, West Coast ports are closed the 5th July in recognition of Bloody Thursday in addition to the 4th of July.
