LANSING, MI (WNWN) – Michigan State Police have announced more troopers will be patrolling I-94 this spring and summer from the Indiana border to Wayne County in an effort to cut down on the number of accidents caused by bad drivers.
I-94 is the major thoroughfare between Detroit and Chicago and traffic increases in the summer.
The additional patrols follow an increase in traffic crashes last year.
State Police Director Colonial Kriste Kibbey Etue says motorists can expect troopers to take a zero tolerance approach to these dangerous driving behaviors, and if you drive aggressively, tailgate, speed, use lanes improperly, expect to get pulled over.
She adds, “Most crashes are preventable, and the dangerous behaviors we see on I-94 need to change. Now is the time to send the message that these dangerous driving behaviors will not be tolerated. Hopefully we can make I-94 much safer this summer.”
