LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) – Labor Day weekend is one
of the busiest travel days of the year, and Michigan State Police say they've
boosted their patrols in an effort to keep everyone safe.
According to AAA, more than 1.2 million Michigan
residents have Labor Day travel plans, and 92 percent of those travelers will
use a vehicle to reach their destination. State police say because of the high
volume of traffic, their primary focus will be on patrol and visibility. "What the troopers are out there looking for is obviously
speed violations, seat belt violations, alcohol violations, erratic driving as
far as lane use or driving too close. Any type of hazardous action that could
lend itself to potential of a traffic accident," says Sgt. Richard Hale of the
Michigan State Police.
State
police say there were 12 traffic-related deaths across Michigan
over the Labor Day weekend in 2011, and while final statistics for this year
haven't been compiled, they say there have been none in the Lansing area.
