The Tennessee Highway Safety Office (THSO) will join various state and local partners today to launch Operation Incognito (OI) statewide. The OI campaign was developed this year to evolve Tennessee’s fourth statewide distracted driving enforcement initiative, known as “the bus tour.” Operation Incognito will also promote National Traffic Incident Response Week, now thru November 17th.
According to Tennessee Highway Safety Office Director Vic Donoho, “The primary focus of Operation Incognito is to reduce distracted driving, serious injury traffic crashes, and fatalities. A secondary focus will include saturations of high-risk construction and utility maintenance zones to increase awareness. Drivers are encouraged to protect roadway workers by staying focused and alert at all times.”
