The Indiana State Police Peru Post will increase patrols over the upcoming weekend as part of its ongoing efforts to ensure safer roadways.
This initiative will see a heightened presence of troopers on the roads, focusing on traffic safety and law enforcement.
The increased patrols will commence on Friday evening and continue throughout the weekend. Troopers will vigilantly monitor for impaired and reckless driving, which may jeopardize the safety of all road users.
"Our primary objective is to make sure everyone reaches their destination safely," said Lieutenant TJ Zeiser, commander of the Peru Post. "We are committed to reducing accidents and saving lives through proactive enforcement and community engagement."
Motorists are urged to obey all traffic laws, including obeying speed limits, wearing seat belts, and avoiding distractions while driving. The Indiana State Police also remind drivers to make responsible choices, such as designating a sober driver if they plan to consume alcohol.
This enhanced patrol effort underscores the Indiana State Police's dedication to public safety and its mission to maintain a secure environment on Indiana's roadways. The community's active cooperation and strict compliance with traffic laws are not just appreciated, but they are also crucial in the success of these safety initiatives.
