*Thanksgiving Safe Arrival
Beginning Saturday, November 20 through Monday, Nov 29, 2021, the Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office will join many other law enforcement agencies across the state, including the Kansas Highway Patrol, in the Kansas *Thanksgiving Safe Arrival traffic enforcement campaign. Although all Kansas Traffic Laws will be enforced, this extra provision will be aggressively enforcing our occupant protection laws. While the objective of this campaign is to target the unbelted and incorrectly restrained, we also provide education that serves as a reminder that BUCKLING UP SAVES LIVES.
The Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office would like to remind you that if you are going for a drive – anywhere at all – don’t even consider putting the vehicle into drive until you and all passengers are properly restrained.
M-O-R-E
Remember: Make the right choice. On the drive to zero, YOU are in the driver’s seat.
*A grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) will support overtime enforcement efforts.
