DeWitt County Sheriff Promotes Safety During Fall

The fall driving season offers several hazards at times.

 

From farm implements to deer being more active, Sheriff Mike Walker says the harvest continues on and we'll likely see those implements on the roadways for the next several weeks.

 

 

Sheriff Walker explains motorists can get themselves into a tight spot by passing these implements and farm vehicles when there is limited visibility due to hills or winding roads or even fog or dust in the air.

 

 

It might sound crazy but the Sheriff indicates conversations he's had with body shop owners and other car people is to just hit a deer that ends up out in front of you rather than trying to swerve to miss it.

 

 

As leaves start to fall and we get some of these fall rains, Sheriff Walker implores motorists to be mindful of slippery conditions with leaves on the roads.
