DPS Stepping Up Enforcement for America’s 250th Birthday

· Texas Border Business

In preparation for the 250th anniversary of America's independence, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is increasing enforcement during the Fourth of July holiday from July 2-5. More Troopers will be on the roads as part of the Operation Crash Awareness Reduction Effort (CARE), targeting speeding, DWI, and other violations. Last year, DPS issued over 64,000 citations and made 277 DWI arrests. They urge the public to prioritize safety by not drinking and driving, moving over for emergency vehicles, and using seat belts. Fireworks should be handled safely, and suspicious activities can be reported through the iWatchTexas program.
