Operation Safe Driver Week, the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance’s enforcement campaign focusing on traffic violations, seat belt enforcement, driver roadside inspections and driver regulatory compliance, is set this year for July 15-21.
CVSA says driver behaviour is the cause of more than 88 percent of large truck crashes and 93 percent of passenger vehicle crashes.
Driving behaviours that will be targeted during the week include speeding, distracted driving, texting, failure to use a seat belt, following too closely, improper lane change, failure to obey traffic control devices and more.
