Dear Resident,
A pril has been
designated as National
Distracted Driving
Awareness Month. As
part of this national
campaign, Jupiter Police
Department Officers will
be conducting additional
enforcement throughout
the entire month of April
in an effort to educate and
provide awareness to all motorists.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA), distracted driving is one of the
fastest growing safety issues on the roads today. Distracted
drivers aren’t just a threat to themselves; they’re a danger
to everyone else on the road. The national distracted
driving effort focuses on ways to change the behavior
of drivers through legislation, enforcement, public
awareness, and education.
Texting is the most alarming distraction. Sending or
reading a text takes your eyes off the road for five seconds.
At 55 mph, that’s like driving the length of an entire
football field with your eyes closed.
With your help, we can ensure the safety of all drivers
who utilize our roadways.
Please continue to visit us on our website at www.
jupiter.fl.us/jpd, and on Facebook @JupiterPolice to learn
about new and happening events within the town of Jupiter.
Sincerely,
Daniel J. Kerr,
Chief of Police
