Carson City Sheriff’s Joining Forces to host events

The Carson City Sheriff’s Office is participating with other law enforcement in Joining Forces, a series of events focusing on distracted drivers and pedestrian safety. Events planned focus on pedestrian safety, seat belt use, speeding, and distracted and impaired driving to increase safety on roadways and reduce crashes.

Grant funding for the event, which runs through April, is provided by the Nevada Department of Public Safety — Office of Traffic Safety. Funds will be used to pay for additional deputies who will be out looking for distracted drivers.
