May 12-18 is Canada Road Safety Week, a national campaign aimed at making Canada's roads the safest in the world.
As of May 4 only 94 days into 2015, there were 22 collisions which resulted in 30 fatalities in RCMP jurisdictions in Saskatchewan. That is 22 collisions and 30 fatalities too many, according to an RCMP press release.
The release states the focus for Canada Road Safety Week will be behaviour that puts drivers, passengers and other road users most at risk. These are: impaired driving, seat belt use, and all aspects related to aggressive and distracted driving. All enforcement agencies across the country have been invited to participate.
Officers across Saskatchewan will be out conducting enforcement this week and through the May long weekend.
