Encouraging Safe Driving over the Holiday Weekend

Clarksville Police DepartmentWe want to encourage safe driving over the Labor Day weekend.

Locally, drivers age 20-25 years old have consistently had higher rates of traffic collisions than other age groups.

We have seen an increase in injury accidents involving the following factors:

  • Seatbelts not being worn
  • Inattentive driving (cell phone usage, eating)
  • Speeding
  • Alcohol
  • Following too closely

There will be increased law enforcement presence and additional emphasis on promoting traffic safety over the holiday weekend commencing September 3rd-6th, 2010.
