The holidays are a time when many people find themselves traveling to spend time with friends and family. According to a press release from the KSP they will be putting in some extra effort to keep the road ways safe. Traffic deaths this year have risen by nearly 100 casualties, and the KSP has implemented operation R.A.I.D, or Remove Aggressive Impaired and Distracted drivers. Drivers will see more patrols, zero tolerance for seat belt and child restraint violations, and more safety checkpoints across the state.
