TAKE CARE WHEN DRIVING AROUND CARS

    The Nevada Highway Patrol wants to reduce the number of commercial motor vehicle and passenger vehicle moving violations, crashes, injuries and fatalities. The Badge on Board program reminds drivers to take care when driving in semi-trucks and other large commercial vehicles, and troopers are following a no-tolerance policy during Badge on Board enforcement periods.
