Traffic Fatalities Decrease

So far this year, Wyoming is set to have one of the lowest traffic fatality totals in years; and they would like to keep it that way. Preliminary figures for 2018 show that Wyoming has had 105 fatalities as of November. However, that number is just preliminary and can change. The Wyoming Department of Transportation and the Wyoming Highway Patrol want to remind motorists they can take measures to keep themselves and their loved ones safe this holiday season to prevent any more fatalities. Motorists should always buckle up, avoid distractions when driving and never drive impaired. The patrol says since 2014, figures for those who were not wearing their seat belts and died in a traffic accident have fluctuated, with recent figures showing a downward trend.
