Beginning February 25 thru March 8, The Galena Police
Department will join other law enforcement agencies in Kansas, Missouri and
Oklahoma with increased enforcement near high schools to raise awareness on
roadway safety. Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for teens
(15-18 years old) in the United States – ahead of all other types of injury,
disease or violence.
“Even one teen death is unacceptable,” Chief Charles said. “Please
slow down, put the phone away or turn it off, and always buckle up.”
Officers will issue citations to any individual who refuses
to obey the traffic laws, whether it is for speeding, texting or failing to
buckle up. Remind teens that driving is a privilege and encourage them to learn
about the importance of driving safely.
