MONTREAL, May 19, 2025 – The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) has announced July 13-19, 2025, as this year’s Operation Safe Driver Week, a North America-wide enforcement and education initiative designed to improve driver behavior through education, outreach, and law enforcement engagement.

During this campaign, law enforcement officers in Canada, the U.S., and Mexico will be actively watching for dangerous driving behaviors by both commercial motor vehicle and passenger vehicle drivers. Offenses such as speeding, distracted driving, following too closely, and impaired drivingwill be met with warnings or citations.

This year’s focus is on reckless, careless, or dangerous driving — defined as driving with a willful disregard for safety or without due care and attention for others on the road.

According to recent statistics, 42,514 people died in U.S. traffic crashes in 2022. Canada reported 1,931 fatalities, while Mexico recorded 15,979 road deaths that same year. CVSA’s mission is to reduce these alarming numbers through safety campaigns like Operation Safe Driver Week.
