    City of Sedona ArizonaSedona AZ (November 10, 2020) – The Sedona Police Department launched a traffic enforcement effort with support from two Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety grants totaling $11,200.

    The first grant pays overtime to enforce and participate in driving under the influence (DUI) programming. Approximately one-third of all traffic crash fatalities in the U.S. involve drunk drivers. In 2018, there were 10,511 people killed in these preventable crashes. 

    Other funds from the grants will support proactive traffic enforcement, which is ever more important considering speeding is one of the main causes of traffic incidents. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 9,378 people were killed due to speeding in 2018 and accounted for 26 percent of all traffic fatalities, or an average of 25 people per day.

During this precious part of the journey, it feels like you are taking the steps, are choosing right, left or straight ahead, that you are in the game.
