To prevent further accidents, it is crucial for all drivers to remain vigilant, check their blind spots, and share the road safely.

The main objective of this emphasis is to reduce crashes through education, awareness, and enforcement. By doing so, it will help make Spokane's roads safer for everyone during this summer season.
