Today marks the beginning of Operation Impact 2020, a national public awareness campaign aimed at making Canada’s roads the safest in the world.
From October 9th to 12th police across the country will be focused on behaviours that put drivers, passengers and other road users at risk: impaired driving due to alcohol, drugs or fatigue, as well as aggressive driving, distracted driving, and driving without a seat belt.
This year’s campaign theme is Safety doesn’t happen by accident!
It emphasizes the accountability and the role each driver has to play to support traffic safety on the streets and highways in their community.
