Law enforcement agencies throughout Nevada are joining forces now through Jan. 22 to go after distracted driers.

Douglas County Sheriff’s Office will be working diligently to urge motorists to keep their eyes on the road and put away cell phone or other items that cause distractions.

Distracted driving is any activity that diverts attention from driving, including talking or texting on your phone, eating and drinking, talking to people in your vehicle, adjusting the stereo, entertainment or navigation system, or anything that takes your attention away from the task of safe driving. 

Joining forces enforcement is paid for by the Nevada Department of Public Safety, Office of Traffic Safety.
