April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month. The New Milford Police Department is partnering with the State Department of Transportation to participate in the spring 2022 Distracted Driving High Visibility Enforcement program.  Police statewide will be out on extra patrols through April 30th to enforce distracted driving laws.  The New Milford Police Department is reminding motorists not to text or talk on the phone while behind the wheel because it's not only dangerous, but it could result in a costly fine.
