RCMP Eye In The Sky Catching Distracted Drivers

Chilliwack – Chilliwack RCMP once again reached new heights to spot distracted drivers during the provincial Distracted Driving enforcement campaign this month.

On September 20, 2018 Chilliwack traffic service officers employed a City of Chilliwack bucket truck to put ‘an eye in the sky’ at the Evans Road round about.  Supported by RCMP Fraser Valley Traffic Services (FVTS), and Chilliwack Safer City distracted drivers were the focus of attention during the two-hour traffic operation.

Chilliwack RCMP used the same technique in the Spring of 2017.

“We look for distracted drivers from places where we are not always expected,” says Corporal Mike Pfeifer of Chilliwack RCMP.  “Once spotted, the driver is stopped and issued a ticket.”

Once again, to prevent distracted driving, and getting that ticket:

  • Leave the phone alone and minimize potential distractions before you head out on the road.
  • Plan your route and secure your pets.
  • Keep your eyes on the road and hands on the steering wheel.
