Applause for Jackson, Tennessee

Jackson, Tennessee has marked a year without a traffic fatality. The city of 57,000 people had 12 fatalities 4 years ago and got serious about traffic safety. Since then the fatalities dropped by three per year. They added red light cameras, a speed van and dedicated more officer time to watching traffic. They have an outstanding team that includes tough prosecution by General Woodall's office. Our DUI prosecutor Anna Banks has had numerous opportunities to show the people of her community that the crime of DUI will not be tolerated.
Congratulations to all involved in this great news.
