- Philly-area police launch aggressive-driver campaign to reduce highway fatalities
Philly-area police are launching a summer traffic safety campaign targeting aggressive driving on U.S. 1 in five counties to reduce crashes and fatalities. The initiative addresses behaviors like speeding, tailgating, and lane changing, citing 2,190 crashes and 37 deaths in the region due to aggressive driving in 2025. A recent high-speed collision in Limerick Township, which killed one driver and involved a DUI charge, highlights the campaign's urgency.
