He notes a lower toll than last year due to fuel costs and reduced weekend travel, but warns incidents could rise if drivers ignore safety. He urges遵守 55 mph limit, designate a driver when drinking, and emphasizes urban-area risk. DPS and local police will intensify traffic enforcement as part of Operation Motorcide with statewide troopers on duty.
