Director of Operations Lt. Col. Michael Crawford said in a statement that every region will have a different enforcement plan that may include more visible enforcement, especially in crash-prone areas; more patrols; an increase in safety checkpoints and nighttime seatbelt enforcement details.
According to the statement, the number of fatal crashes in Kentucky is up this year compared to last year. Through Nov. 19, there had been 652 people killed in traffic crashes in 2015. During the same period in 2014, 585 died in crashes.
