U Drive. U Text. U Pay. campaign is underway!
Brookfield, CT— From April 2 to April 30, 2018, Brookfield Police will be out in force looking for distracted drivers as part of the U Drive. U Text. U Pay. campaign, a high-visibility effort to enforce distracted-driving laws.
Brookfield Police is teaming up with the Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConnDOT) during the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) National Distracted Driving Awareness month to make sure all motorists keep their eyes on the road and their hands on the wheel.
“Distracted driving is a real problem, During this enforcement period, officers will be ticketing anyone who is texting or on their phone while behind the week. The bottom line is if you text and drive, you will pay.” - Brookfield Police Captain Pete Frengs
