Officially beginning on Friday July 31, and running through August 8th, what is known as Speed Awareness Week is officially underway in the Hudson Valley, and the entire state of NY.
You may notice increased visibility and the presence of New York State Police and local law enforcement on NY state roadways over the next week or so, as the number of police patrolling the roadways is on the rise as part of this initiative.
In a statement issued by the Governor s Traffic Safety Committee, speed continues to be a predominant factor in traffic crashes in New York State, with over 1/3 of all traffic fatalities in New York caused by speeding in 2020. Statistics also indicate that the number of fatal crashes caused by unsafe speed increases during the summer months, with the highest totals coming between June and October.
