11-28-13 holiday traffic

Local law enforcement predicts pretty much steady, high traffic volume on area roadways throughout the holiday weekend.   Fond du lac County Sheriff’s  captain Rick Olig says traffic began to increase the day before Thanksgiving…and he predicts  little let up through the weekend.  Olig says the obvious dangers include speeding, following too close and alcohol.    But Olig says texting while driving can be just as deadly.  "Studies have shown that texting drivers are as much if not worse than intoxicated drivers,"  Olig said.
