The police urge motorists keep roads safe by:

  • Never text while driving

  • Pull over to use your phone

  • Avoid tasks that may take your attention away from driving

The campaign runs through May with traffic and frontline officers conducting speed enforcement and watching for distracted drivers in high traffic volume areas and residential neighbourhoods.
