Ontario Provincial Police will be dedicated to Operation Safe Trucking this week (August 18th – 24th).
This annual campaign focuses on enforcing the rules of the road and moving violations, specifically for commercial motor vehicles (CMV).
Sgt Kerry Schmidt reveals some staggering numbers and reminds us to always be careful especially around larger vehicles.
A collision with a transport truck has a high chance of being deadly as Sgt Kerry Schmidt explains.
That’s not all the OPP will be focusing on however as Sgt Kerry Schmidt explains.
The OPP reminds the public that officers will be focusing on offences such as impaired driving, distracted driving, following too close, other moving violations, speeding, non-compliance with inspection, equipment and hours of service laws, as well as load security.
