Heads up, Texas! DPS will increase statewide patrols from May 12-26 as part of our annual Memorial Day Enforcement Campaign. Troopers will be focused on enforcing seat belt laws and promoting safe driving behaviors to reduce crashes and save lives. DPS reminds drivers to do their part to make Texas roadways safer.
- Eliminate distractions while driving.
- Move Over or Slow Down for police, fire, EMS, Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) vehicles and tow trucks stopped on the side of the road with emergency lights activated.
- Buckle up everyone in the vehicle — it’s the law.
- Don’t drink and drive.
- Slow down, especially in bad weather, heavy traffic, unfamiliar areas or construction zones.
- Drive defensively, as holiday travel can present additional challenges.
