BC Highway Patrol Officers were kept busy in Keremeos during the Victoria Day long weekend which was part of the High Risk Driving and Motorcycle Awareness campaign for the month of May.

Officers were located in various locations to remind drivers to slow down and drive safely. Unfortunately, many motorists were stopped and issued various BC Motor Vehicle Act violations including excessive speeding, Immediate Roadside Prohibitions, driving without due care, distracted driving and driving while impaired by drugs to name a few.

The primary objective of enforcement is to reduce fatal and serious injury motor vehicle collisions, says Sergeant Brian Evans with Keremeos BC Highway Patrol. Our dedicated officers contributed to achieving this goal through high visibility and vigorous enforcement.
