Operation Safe Driver set for Oct. 17-23

Oct 1, 2010

The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance’s annual Operation Safe Driver campaign runs Oct. 17-23.

The traffic enforcement program will focus on enforcement in high-crash corridors with high truck traffic volumes, moving violations, driver infractions and aggressive driving behaviors. CVSA will seek to remove unsafe and fatigued commercial vehicle drivers from the highways and look for seat belt use.
