Traffic blitz

LOCAL police have already began their blitz on holiday drivers, with even more police expected on the roads this festive season.
Noosa Heads acting senior sergeant Tom Dawson said the traffic blitz started in Kawana last weekend and will continue throughout the coast including Noosa over the holiday season.
Snr Sgt Dawson said the police will be targeting the fatal five – distraction and inattention, drink and drug driving, fatigue, speeding and not wearing a seat belt.
With 211 fatalities on Queensland roads this year already, the traffic blitz will aim to reduce the road toll over the Christmas and New Year period.
