“We all know it’s hot outside, but drivers need to keep a cool head when operating their vehicles,” the police department said on its official Facebook page. “Slow down, keep your eyes on the road and don’t get distracted by your phone, and as always STAY SAFE!”

Officers did not specify what led to the crash. Fortunately, the driver and another person involved were not injured, police said.
