Operation Safe Driver Week is currently underway from July 13 to 19—a dedicated seven-day campaign aimed at improving drivers’ behaviors through education, traffic-enforcement strategies and driver interactions with law enforcement.
See the full CVSA article here.
Throughout the week, law enforcement personnel in Canada, Mexico and the U.S. will identify commercial motor vehicle drivers and/or passenger vehicle drivers engaging in unsafe driving behaviors on our roadways and issue a warning(s) or citation(s).
Examples of unsafe driving behaviors include:
- Speeding
- Distracted driving
- Following too closely
- Drunk or drugged driving
- Reckless, careless or dangerous driving
Warning and citation data will be reported to CVSA, and the results will be released in the fall.
The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) offers resources – available throughout the year – for teen and new drivers and commercial motor vehicle drivers, along with public service announcement videos, which are available for download and distribution.
