Florida is #1 in the nation for bicycle fatalities and our county ranks in the top 25 in Florida for traffic crashes resulting in serious and fatal injuries to pedestrians and bicyclists. That’s why LCSO is on a mission to improve pedestrian and bicycle safety in our community.
One way we’re doing that is through the High Visibility Enforcement (HVE) operations as part of the #AlertTodayFlorida campaign funded by the FLDOT. These enforcement efforts focus primarily on education to motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists, in order to increase safe practices and compliances with Florida traffic laws.
