The Chesterfield County Police Department’s Traffic Section is conducting several countywide DUI checkpoints and roaming patrols in conjunction with the Start Safe-Finish Safe campaign. The summer boating and traffic safety initiative began May 28 in which officers targeted drunk driving and boating, speeding, red light and seat belt/child safety seat violations.
Police continue to create awareness among Chesterfield County residents about overall traffic safety and the dangers of drunk and reckless driving. Please celebrate the Labor Day weekend safely whether staying in the area or heading out of town by:
- Driving and boating sober
- Wearing a seat belt/securing children in a child safety seat
- Stopping at red lights
- Focusing on the business of driving and utilizing safe driving habits at all times
- Being cognizant of pedestrians, bicyclists and other motorists
- Driving the posted speed limit
