WILDWOOD — The members of the City of Wildwood Police Department have been asked to take part in a new program being initiated by the Division of Highway Traffic Safety. Beginning on April 1 through April 21, 2014 the City of Wildwood Police Department as well as police agencies throughout the state will join with the Division of Highway Traffic Safety in the Distracted Driving 2014 Statewide Crackdown. This is part of a nationwide enforcement effort, with the slogan UDrive. UText. UPay.
The purpose of the campaign is to undertake visible, targeted enforcement during April, which is National Distracted Driving Month. Enforcement activities will specifically focus on driver behaviors that distract from the task of driving, such as talking on a hand-held cell phone and/or sending text messages.
Chief Steven Long, encourages the driving public as always to be alert and cautious while driving. Should you receive a text message or phone call on your cellular phone while driving and your vehicle is not equipped with “Bluetooth,” pull to the side of the road when conditions are safe. (Preferably off of the roadway to an area such as a parking lot, be sure to bring your vehicle to a complete stop, ensuring the vehicle is in the “Park” position before answering the call.)
Cape May – Governor Murphy says he doesn't know anything about the drones and doesn't know what they are doing but he does know that they are not dangerous. Does anyone feel better now?
