NHP Joins Forces to Stop Pedestrian Deaths
Pedestrian Safety is a Two-Way Street
The Nevada Highway Patrol and other Nevada law enforcement agencies participating in the Joining Forces program are urging pedestrians and drivers alike to be aware of each other and share the road responsibly. From October 12th through the 18th, 2021, the Joining Forces law enforcement team will be issuing citations to pedestrians and motorists who are violating traffic safety laws.
At some point in the day, everyone is a pedestrian. Between 2014 and 2018, 387 pedestrians lost their lives on Nevada’s roadways. In an effort to reverse the trend of pedestrian injuries and deaths, Troopers will be looking for traffic offenses made both drivers and pedestrians.
The Nevada Highway Patrol remains dedicated to bringing the number of fatalities on our roadways to zero through promoting safe pedestrian and motorist behavior. Whether you are in a vehicle or on foot, stay alert and safely share the road.
