FAILURE to drive responsibly is the #1 cause for motor vehicle accidents, each and every year.  This is the result of texting and driving – distracted driving – failure to wear safety belts – disregard for the road conditions – driving under the influence – and so much more.

~”Your SAFETY, is our #1 priority at the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office, and with many of you and your neighbors traveling for the summertime, we want to remind you to practice proper road safety mannerisms and stay vigilant of other drivers.”   Cherokee County Sheriff Jeff Shaver adds “We preach constantly, to abide by the laws for a reason: to protect YOU and those AROUND you.  It’s an honor to serve as your Sheriff – and I hope that you all continue to enjoy the summertime for a long time!”

Drive Safely and Be Aware of Your Surroundings at ALL Times – this note from WEIS Radio and the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office.
