PRESS RELEASE
AGGRESSIVE DRIVING ENFORCEMENT

July 31, 2012 - The Moscow Police Department, in conjunction with agencies throughout the state, is focusing its efforts to target aggressive drivers. The emphasis patrols will take place from August 1st, 2012 through August 13th, 2012. According to Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) statistics, more Idahoans between the ages 4 through 44 are killed each year as a result of traffic crashes than by natural causes.  Speeding continues to be a major factor in approximately one-third of traffic deaths every year across the nation.  In Idaho the number of crashes involving aggressive driving is higher than the national average. Aggressive driving represents a risk to everyone on Idaho roadways. The goal of the emphasis patrols is to eliminate traffic fatalities on Idaho roadways.

This summer while traveling please consider the risks to yourself, your loved ones, and to other motorists.

Drive safe, drive sober, buckle up and have a safe summer.
