TRAFFIC TIP TUESDAY 08-18-15

Sergeant Matt Lillibridge and the Traffic Deputies want to take a moment to provide the following information…..

TRAFFIC TIP TUESDAY 08-18-15

Hernando County Schools are back in session on Monday, 08-24-15. We recommend that everyone allow for additional drive time, as the roadways will be more congested.
Please watch for children walking and riding bicycles to school.

The Hernando County Sheriff’s Office will be conducting Traffic Enforcement in School Zones. This effort is in conjunction with the Florida Sheriff’s Task Force Operation: Safe Schools. Enforcement will concentrate on violators who pass stopped school busses, speeding in school zones, pedestrian and bicycle violations. Please drive safely and watch out for our children.

Traffic Tip Tuesday is a weekly post designed to educate our citizens and to increase traffic safety.

Hernando County deputies are very proactive in traffic enforcement. In 2014 Hernando County traffic fatalities were lower than 2013.

Members of the Traffic Unit conduct traffic enforcement each and every day throughout the county, unfortunately not every violation can be witnessed by a deputy. For this reason, traffic tips are posted to provide education in an attempt to make our roadways safer.

If you have a traffic complaint, please contact our office at 352-754-6830 to have a unit dispatched to the area. Thank you.

UPDATE on ROAD CLOSURES

All roadways in Hernando County have been opened with the exception of NANCY AVENUE.

Nancy Avenue will be CLOSED for an extended period of time while repairs are made.
