If you’re going to be on the road during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, make sure you make good decisions behind the wheel, because police will be out in full force looking for illegal driving behaviors.
Hundreds of police organizations throughout the state have announced that they will be conducting extra DUI and road safety patrols over the holiday weekend. For most organizations, the enforcement will begin today and run through Sunday evening.
Police officers say that they will be on the lookout for the four fatal driving behaviors, which are all too common this time of year. The four fatal driving behaviors are:
- Drunk Driving
- Speeding
- Distracted Driving
- Unbelted driving
