I-10 will be well patrolled over the Labor Day weekend

If you are traveling over the Labor Day holiday, be aware that law enforcement groups from Florida to California are taking part in a multi-state action focusing on I-10.

The intensified enforcement effort is called “10-8 on 10, One Road, One Mission.” 

By all states working together, the entire 2,460 miles of I-10 will be covered during the four day period beginning today and continuing through September 2^nd.

Law enforcement agencies in each state will conduct special details focused on stopping drunk and drugged drivers, aggressive drivers, speeders and drivers who fail to move over to the left hand lane when a law enforcement, emergency or tow vehicle is parked on the side of the road. 

In addition, troopers will be checking for distracted driving, seat belt use, improper lane changes and commercial vehicle safety. 

While these are basically the same infractions the Highway Patrol focuses on every day, it is the first time that the eight states have teamed up to ensure interstate travelers will see the same enforcement effort throughout their trip.
