OPP and police services across the country are out in force as we head into the Thanksgiving Day long weekend.
“Operation Impact” is now underway with police focusing on the big four: distracted driving, impaired driving, aggressive driving and not buckling up.
They are aiming to reduce the carnage on our roadways, which has spiked this year.
Provincial Police Sergeant Kerry Schmidt says 239 people have lost their lives just on OPP-patrolled roadways this year.
As well, with many people closing their cottages this weekend, police are also urging safety on waterways and trails.
