The Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office Reminds Everyone To Drive With Caution As The Holiday Season Begins

The Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office wants to remind everyone to Drive with Caution as the Holiday Season Begins. The heavily-traveled Thanksgiving weekend* is one of the most dangerous and deadliest times of the year on America’s roadways due to low seat belt use. Deputies will be making an extra effort to look for travelers that are not buckled.

The Holiday Season also can bring on Aggressive Driving as people shop and prepare for activities. The Sheriff’s Office will be watching for Speeding, Tailgating, Running Red Lights, and aggressive lane changing in heavily traveled shopping areas.

The Holidays are also the time for parties and drinking. The Sheriff’s Office will be patrolling all of Wicomico County looking for Impaired Drivers. There will be Sobriety Checkpoints and Saturation Patrols throughout the Holiday Season.

So please, Buckle Up, Slow Down and Be Alert.

Don’t Become a Holiday Memory, Drive Safely.

They have pretty cowered the population into think it's perfectly OK to stop INNOCENT citizens at Nazi-style "checkpoints" to see IF anyone is committing any crimes. First it was drunk drivers, now its a full-out "wants and warrants" check, a registration and tag check, a visual "safety" inspection, and sometimes even a search. But hey, stripping citizens of their civil rights ain't an easy job. But IF you can couch it in terms of HELPING them or PROTECTING them, citizens will fall for it every time. And the ones who don't? Thats what billy clubs, pepper spray, and 9mm's are for.

They have no right to randomly stop me, attempt to search me or intimidate me to an illegal search if I have done nothing wrong. This is a NAZI Germany Sheriff Dept.
