That is the date for
Operation Impact, a joint
: rt between 216 members
@ of Canada’s policing commu-

to bring the issue of traffic
safety to the forefront.

Particular areas of concern
are seatbelts, speed and
impaired driving.

campaign is to reduce the
deaths and injuries on our
highways through _ traffic
enforcement and road safety
education,” said North
Vancouver RCMP Sgt. Bob

Last year’s exercise had the
same focus and saw 298,798
vehicles checked. Of those,
8,611 consisted of seat belt
violations and a further 500
drinking and driving charges
were recorded.

According to statistics,
about 8% of Canadians contin-
ue to drive without seatbelts.
