April is National Distracted Driving Month and the Nevada Highway Patrol will be implementing a zero-tolerance enforcement period April 22-26.

Troopers around the Silver State continue to observe motorists texting, talking, and reading non-voice communications despite the fact this behavior became illegal more than 15 months ago.

In 2012, the Nevada Highway Patrol issued 12,275 citations statewide to motorists observed breaking this law. The enforcement activity for the first quarter of 2013 appears to be similar to last year’s statistics’ 2,851 citations have already been issued statewide during the first three months of this year.
