Speeding will be the focus of this year’s Safe Driver Week
The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance’s (CVSA) annual initiative targeting unsafe driving behaviors of both commercial and passenger vehicle drivers will be held July 9-15.
Throughout Operation Safe Driver Week, law enforcement personnel will be on the lookout for commercial motor vehicle drivers and passenger vehicle drivers engaging in risky driving. Identified unsafe drivers will be pulled over and issued a citation or warning.
Examples of unsafe driver behaviors that law enforcement will be watching for are speeding, improper lane changes, passing or turns, driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, using a handheld device, failure to wear a seat belt, and more.
This year’s emphasis will again be on speeding. Every year, Operation Safe Driver Week focuses on a specific unsafe driving behavior to call attention to the dangers of that behavior. CVSA has kept its focus on speeding, citing the issues.
