Peel - In an effort to address aggressive and unsafe driving behaviour, the Peel Regional Police Traffic Services have commenced the spring "Project Safe Driver" campaign.
The campaign was kicked off on Saturday, May 3, 2008 and will last until Sunday, May 25, 2008.
The Safe Driver campaigns have become a tradition within Traffic Services, and are designed to emphasize both education and enforcement elements of road safety. Building on the success of previous initiatives, motorists can expect to see an increase in police presence on the roads to enforce traffic laws at specific locations throughout the Region.
This increased enforcement is in addition to the work carried out daily by the dedicated officers of all five Peel Regional Police Divisions, who will be working in conjunction with Traffic Services to target specific driving offences.
During the course of this spring's campaign, a number of enforcement priorities will be addressed. They include speeding, improper turns and lane changes, impaired driving aggressive driving, vehicle safety checks for passenger and commercial vehicles.
The involvement of the public is essential to road safety. Individual decisions on the part of drivers to obey traffic laws, keeping their vehicles in good repair, and the appropriate use of safety equipment can have a positive impact on everyone using the roadway. The Peel Regional Police would like to remind all road users that "road safety is a shared responsibility and it starts with you".
