Summer Months Call for Safer Driving

Summer is officially here and the warm weather continues to roll in, and with it comes more motorcycles on the roads. Motorcycles can be a bigger problem on the road than most would think because they are because they are small, hard to see, and accelerate and slow down quickly. State Trooper and District 9 Safety Education Officer, Sean Ramsey, said that both motorcyclists and drivers need to make sure they aware of their surroundings.

Ramsey also said that with 4th of July coming up, he expects people to celebrate bye drinking, but he would prefer to not have to arrest anyone for a DUI.

Ramsey said the perfect holiday night for State Troopers is a night where they don't have to give out any tickets and no accidents occur. Ramsey was a guest on Tuesday's NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
