Six-state trooper crackdown targets speeding and seat belt violations

Law enforcement from six states are teaming up for a major traffic enforcement effort this weekend. The crackdown will run from October 10 to October 12, 2025, targeting drivers across Kentucky, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.

The focus: Troopers will step up patrols looking for speeding, impaired driving, and seat belt violations.

The goal is to help reduce crashes and cut down on highway deaths.
This group effort is all part of the 6-State Trooper Project, which brings state police together for special traffic safety pushes.

High-visibility patrols and sharing resources are meant to make roadways safer across the entire region, reported Kentucky State Police.

The special enforcement lasts all weekend, wrapping up Sunday, October 12.
