The National Police Initiative’s “awareness week” for road safety aims to reduce impaired driving through increased roadside testing and education. This proactive campaign, in collaboration with the European Roads Policing Network Roadpol, targets behaviors like substance impairment, excessive speeding, and distracted driving to create a safer driving environment and decrease the number of accidents on the roads.
The Police campaign starting June 17, 2024, targets impaired driving to reduce traffic collisions caused by alcohol or drugs. It involves heightened awareness, nationwide traffic checks, and enforcement to improve road safety. The initiative is part of a collaborative effort with ROADPOL, aimed at curbing impaired drivingrelated accidents.
Driving under the influence of drugs in Paphos, Cyprus, poses significant risks to road safety, with impaired judgment and slower reaction times leading to increased accidents. Offenders face arrest and legal consequences, while education and support programs aim to prevent such incidents and ensure community wellbeing.
