The Nebraska State Patrol will have the equivalent of 57 extra troopers on the road over the July 4th holiday in an effort to prevent injury and fatality crashes.
The special enforcement will take place beginning Tuesday, July 3 and run through Sunday, July 8. Troopers and Communications Specialists will work overtime hours thanks in part to a nearly $28,000 grant from the Nebraska Office of Highway Safety.
Motorists are reminded to always wear their seat belt, obey the posted speed limit and never drive impaired or distracted. The Nebraska State Patrol encourages holiday travelers to allow for plenty of time to reach their destination.
