Family Day kicks off “That Text or Call Could End It All”

The Family Day morning of Monday, February 20, 2017 will be the time for many police officers to launch the distracted driving campaign called “That Text or Call Could End It All.” This one-week initiative will highlight all dangerous activities associated with drivers who talk, text, type, dial or email using hand-held communication and entertainment devices.
