The Indiana State Police are increasing patrols through the end of December as part of the annual Safe Family Travel campaign, working alongside the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute and supported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The effort targets impaired driving, aggressive driving, and seat belt violations, with officers conducting sobriety checkpoints and saturation patrols. Officials remind drivers to buckle up, slow down, and never drive impaired, noting that alcohol-related crashes and failure to wear seat belts remain leading causes of roadway fatalities during the holidays.
