Law Enforcement Officials Seek Community Participation in Lifesaving Initiative
Maryland State Police Salisbury Barrack will join more than one hundred law enforcement agencies across the state in an effort to educate the public on the lifesaving and injury-reducing benefits of safety belt/child seat use. Additional attention will focus on the reduction of aggressive driving and driving while impaired. This campaign will take place from May through December 2011.
The Maryland Chiefs of Police, Sheriffs, Campus Safety Directors, and Maryland State Police Barrack Commanders challenge their law enforcement personnel to design community-outreach programs and events to recruit community partners, and to conduct enhanced educational and enforcement initiatives. In Wicomico County, state and local law enforcement officials will be conducting an aggressive driving campaign, entitled the Smooth Operator Program. This enforcement initiative will be from August 7 to August 13, 2011.

Heeeere we go! We've already seen the billboards telling us speeding is "agressive driving"....along with the very Gestapo tag line of "It STOPS Here!"....I wasn't around for the debate about changing the definition of "aggressive", but I'm willing to venture no one else was either...doing 62 in a 55 is AGGRESSIVE driving? Hardly. But it sure will help with collecting more fines and keeping the citizenry cowered. An eight month "campaign"? Wow. How long before we have the straight up, no-holds-barred Orwellian YEAR LONG "campaign"?..Just to make sure we all understand who's boss.
