Woodbury City Police and the Cannon County Sheriff’s Deputies will once again be out in force on local roadways this winter cracking down on seat belt violators, drunk drivers, those who speed and those who drive distracted. It is all part of a special More Cops, More Stops enforcement blitz which starts today and runs through Super Bowl Sunday February 3rd. More than 700 passenger vehicle occupants were killed in Tennessee motor vehicle crashes during 2011 and 57 were not wearing seat belts at the time. Alcohol and speeding were also deadly. Tennessee law enforcement is teaming with the US Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on the important project testing the effectiveness of a combined enforcement crackdown.
The special More Cops More Stops enforcement campaign is designed to boost awareness among Tennesseans about the importance to think before acting carelessly and endangering themselves and those around them on the roadways
