Law enforcement personnel will increase traffic safety enforcement Oct. 15-21 as part of the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance’s annual Operation Safe Driver Week. Drivers can expect increased commercial vehicle (CMV) and passenger-vehicle enforcement throughout the week.

Operation Safe Driver Week is a partnership between CVSA and the Federal Motor Carriers Association to “help improve the behavior of all drivers operating in an unsafe manner – either in or around a CMV – through educational and traffic enforcement strategies to address individual’s exhibiting high-risk driving behaviors.”

Law enforcement will be patrolling for the following dangerous driving behaviors, among others: speeding, distracted driving, texting, failure to use a seatbelt while operating a CMV or passenger-vehicle, traveling too closely, improper lane change, and failure to obey traffic control devices.
